Like most Lakers fans, head coach JJ Redick was very unhappy with his team's defense in its 126-102 loss to the Spurs on Monday.

Los Angeles Lakers coach JJ Redick said he and his wife 'wept and wailed' after seeing his home and the neighborhood burned to the ground in the devastating Pacific Palisades wildfires.

Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick lamented losing “things that you can’t replace” as he described the pain of seeing his rental home burned down in the Pacific Palisades wildfire.

"I was not prepared for what I saw. It's complete devastation and destruction," Redick said, recalling driving to see his home Wednesday.

He fights back tears when discussing the devastation from the fire in Pacific Palisades and how much the community means to his family.

Lakers coach JJ Redick and his family lost their home and possessions in the devastating fires in Los Angeles last week, but two San Antonio Spurs stars gave Redick's sons an assist toward rebuilding their basketball memorabilia collections.

The San Antonio Spurs secured a victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday, with Victor Wembanyama showcasing his immense talent. Following the game, Lakers coach JJ Redick shared insights into the unique challenges of game-planning against the French phenom.

When the Los Angeles Lakers have been at their best, their defense has been on point. In their return to the court against the San Antonio Spurs, that defense greatly failed them in the second half and head coach JJ Redick had no answer.
