The summer league was special for the Lakers sophomore Max Christie as he showed to be NBA-ready, but after the first four preseason games, the SG was far from what showed in the SL.

Christie had more playing time and a bigger opportunity against the Milwaukee Bucks, the game didn't have many of the team starters, as Austin Reaves, LeBron James, Gabe Vincent, and other players missed the contest.

Max has now opened up about what he has been doing this preseason and what he is trying to do for the team and getting a team rotation spot in Ham's team.

“It felt good just to go out there and play my game.” Max Christie speaks on his role and being comfortable on the floor. Christie got another opportunity and showed a great level.

Jalen Hood-Schifino was out and another guard took his spot

Scotty Pippen Jr. could be living his last games as a purple and gold, but in this Sunday's night game vs. the Bucks, he got another opportunity after the rookie Jalen Hood-Schifino was out. Pippen Jr. only scored 5 points and wasn't able to show an outstanding performance.
