Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick heaps huge praise on former guard D'Angelo Russell to have a great game.

The Lakers seemed on their way to their fourth straight loss in the first half of Wednesday's game versus the Heat, but they turned the tide and won.

Redick has challenged the Lakers ever since he took the job as head coach. There's been a level of accountability, transparency, and consistency throughout this season. So far, that method has paid off. They sit at the No. 6 seed right now with a 21-17 record. Los Angeles has had some bumps in the road, as all teams do.

After resisting the idea throughout much of the season, JJ Redick revealed at practice on Thursday that he would be using more two-big lineups in the upcoming games for the Lakers.

Head coach JJ Redick has proven himself to be a strong choice for the Los Angeles Lakers despite not having any coaching experience prior to joining the organization.
