@SleeperBot: Los Angeles Lakers guard Max Christie struggled in the early part of the 2024-25 NBA season but has shown notable improvement in recent games. He initially averaged 3.8 points with low shooting percentages, yet over the past 10 games, he's increased his averages to 10.2 points with significantly better shooting efficiency. Christie attributed his early difficulties to overthinking and high expectations but has since adjusted his mental approach to improve his game. Lakers head coach JJ Redick praised Christie's defensive versatility and has included him in the starting lineup to provide the team with more strategic flexibility.
