AD is considered as one of the best players in the league right now, with some experts even saying that he's bound to win MVP next season. Fans are expecting him to lead the Lakers to a championship, and that's exactly what he plans to do.
But since the season is still several months away, he's doing some extra-curricular activities to keep himself busy.
It is expected that AD will also ask Bryant for some pointers on how to be better. Over the past couple of years, Kobe has helped players train during the summer, including Kawhi Leonard, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jayson Tatum, and much more Learning from Bryant will definitely help Davis become a more dominant player next season, as the Black Mamba has made a reputation for being one of the best scorers in the post.
If Davis will be able to create his own version of Kobe's patented fadeaway post jumper, he will create a lot of problems for the opposing teams.
