Rui Hachimura, come on down! Rob Pelinka must have found some Zen Master magic dust up in Jeannie Buss’s office, because there’s no way this happened without divine intervention.

The Lakers are again on the upswing, LeBron is beating down history’s door, and Anthony Davis is poised to rejoin the club in the coming days. With two big wins in the bag and this club really believing in itself, it’s hard not to believe in the Lakers “what if” going forward.

Ethan takes a solo ride to discuss Hachimura’s arrival, his immediate impact, the short-term future, and where this Lakers team can benefit most from the former lottery pick’s acquisition.
