Critics argue that both players are too ball-dominant to coexist effectively. However, the Los Angeles Clippers head coach, Ty Lue, dismissed the skepticism.
“They’re not right. It will work. When you have LeBron James, who’s been the best player in the league the last 15 years, and you have Luka, a top 3, top 5 player, they’ll figure [it] out,” Lue said.
