No more Rui Hachimura? LeBron James could have a new pupil in the Lakers

The chemistry inside the LA Lakers roster seems to be a powerful tool the team will be able to use at the start of the regular season and beyond. One of the offseason main storylines that has hyped the Lakers fans has been the fact that Rui Hachimura tagged along with LeBron James' summer workouts and became his pupil.

James himself said Hachimura has become his understudy and both players have shown on several occasions to have great chemistry and a good and fun friendship.

Now that the regular season is about to start for the team, the Lakers organization organized a Las Vegas style casino-themed night for the players, and LeBron James was seen teaching Max Christie how to play Blackjack.

While not on the court, it seems that Christie can become James' new pupil when it comes to playing Blackjack. Austin Reaves was also teaching Max how it's done in another example of the great chemistry the whole roster has been developing since last season and the training camp with the new signings.

Rui Hachimura and Anthony Davis have also become closer friends

On the same Casino night, Rui Hachimura didn't want to pose alone for a photo shoot and asked Anthony Davis to take pictures with him, both showed great camaraderie and their love for LA by making the LA sign with their hands at one point.
