JJ Redick praised T-Wolves star Anthony Edwards for his footwork in the third quarter

The Los Angeles Lakers kicked off the JJ Redick coaching era with a 110-103 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

The Lakers were given the lead by a 36-point, 16-rebound effort from Anthony Davis, while LeBron James scored 16 points with five rebounds and four assists on a night he was joined by his son and teammates Bronny James made history as the Lakers became the first father-son duo to appear on the court together in an NBA game.

On the other hand, it was a disappointing night for the Minnesota Timberwolves, who made it to the Western Conference finals last year. Anthony Edwards scored 27 points to pace the T-Wolves in the loss.

Edwards made a few nifty moves Tuesday night to create space for his jump shot, which Redick took note of throughout the game. In the third quarter, Redick finally had a moment to say a few words to Edwards, which included some talk about how some of his moves weren't necessarily legal.

“I’m just saying, this is a journey,” Redick said to Edwards, who had a big smile on his face. Some Lakers fans courtside also laughed before Redick reiterated his point to fans.

“It’s a journey!”

Redick and the Lakers got the last laugh.

They next play against the Phoenix Suns on Friday night.
