The Los Angeles Lakers are entering a crucial offseason this year following an early exit from the postseason. Los Angeles has plenty of questions to answer about the future of the roster, and the front office will be very busy.

But with stars LeBron James and Luka Doncic on the team, the Lakers are in a decent enough spot. The two players worked well together on the court during the short time with Los Angeles last season, and they will try to continue building on the chemistry.
To help things, it seems that the two stars are continuing to bond off the court. Doncic is scheduled to appear on James' podcast, 'Mind the Game', this weekend.
The Lakers star will join James and former NBA point guard Steve Nash. This has many fans excited to see what kind of topics or questions the three of them will discuss.
With Doncic now being a teammate of James, this appearance makes things even more intriguing. The three may discuss the trade that sent Doncic to Los Angeles, or they could simply just talk basketball.
The podcast has been known for breaking down the game of basketball for fans, with some of the best minds that the NBA has ever seen. Fans have enjoyed it, in part because it helps them learn the game on a higher level, and they get to see insight from star players.

The podcast was originally started by James and his now-coach with the Lakers, JJ Redick. But once Redick took the job with the Lakers, he ended his days as a basketball podcaster.
The show reprised itself recently, with Nash taking over for Redick alongside James. It has continued its success, and could have some very large viewership with Doncic now joining this week.
With Doncic now in the fold, the Lakers have a star lined up to fully take over after James does call it quits on his career. Doncic looked good in the limited time with Los Angeles and will try to build on everything to help bring the city another title.
