September 30th News Today, Lakers forward James attended the media day of the new season and was interviewed by the media.

When asked what skills he focused on improving this offseason, James quipped, "My golf swing. That's a skill I want to focus on improving, haha."

"I can't say that I spent a lot of time practicing 3-pointers that catch and shoot. You may also see some training videos that I forwarded, which is my summer off shooting training with Chris Johnson. I understand how I'm going to maximize my chances when I'm not holding the ball, including moving into the shooting space. Of course, Luca (Doncic) and AR (Reeves) will be in a lot of When we have the ball, we have Smart, he also has the ball. Gabb (Vincent) can do the ball, Brownie can do the ball when he gets the chance. We have a lot of players who can do the ball, so how will I play in a team that I don’t have that many opportunities to hold the ball? I also have the ball, but I guess I have trained a lot and I have practiced everything, but I do practice more catching threes just to be prepared. One of my old friends always told me that if you’re ready, you never need to prepare. It’s that simple. So I’m trying to do this this summer.”
