Luka Doncic hilariously surprises JJ Redick with a new jacket
Los Angeles Lakers superstar Luka Dončić decided to prepare surprise for his head coach JJ Redick.
Dončić and Redik are spending their second season together. The latter is his second year as an NBA head coach, while Doncic is in his second year with the franchise after the Lakers acquired him from the Dallas Mavericks last February.
The couple got along because Dončić was comfortable with life in Los Angeles. They created humorous moments on and off the court, and after one of the Lakers’ games, Dončić decided to give Redik a surprise.
Doncic wore a jacket last week, drawing Redick’s attention from the sideline. The coach showed interest in the jacket, as the star quarterback noticed how he ordered and delivered the jacket some time after the game. It’s safe to say that Redick appreciated his star’s kind gesture.
“I know you want to be like me,” Doncic said to Redik in the video.
“I know you want to be like me.”
