The Lakers have been on Cloud Nine for the past couple of weeks. Of course, the biggest reason is the blockbuster trade that brought Luka Doncic to the City of Angels. Moreover, the LA franchise was undefeated this month. Until tonight! Yes, right before heading to the All-Star break, JJ Redick’s squad was brought back to earth with an embarrassing defeat against the Jazz. But instead of focusing on what went wrong, the head coach has his priorities set for this weekend. And it’s not Lakers related.
When asked if the upcoming break is an opportunity to unplug and reset for the second half, Redick said, “I do think I would benefit from that. My goal for All-Star break is I know this sounds simple, my goal for All-Star break is I finalize my insurance claims and that I find an apartment to live in. So, that’s what I’m hoping for and get out of the hotel.” Yes, JJ has found temporary shelter in a local hotel with his family ever since his Pacific Palisades home tragically burned down in last month’s LA wildfires.
Of course, he has been unable to find a new home because of his busy schedule as the Lakers’ head coach. But during the week-long break courtesy of the All-Star Weekend, JJ can finally prioritize his personal life and hopefully shift with his family to a new apartment. “That would be nice.” He remarked. Moreover, JJ doesn’t plan on being bothered by any Lakers related queries during this period and had an NSFW message for his staff members, “I’m gonna tell my staff Don’t f*cking talk to me the next two days. If you need something over the weekend, I will be back in the office Monday.”
