Los Angeles Lakers veteran forward Jared Dudley says superstar LeBron James is his favorite Lakers teammate to hang out with.
Dudley says James has the best stories to tell out of all of his Lakers teammates “because he's seen more of the world, he's been with more people, he's won championships,” per Sam Amick of The Athletic.
LeBron James has won three championships, two with the Miami Heat and one with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The four-time MVP and three-time Finals MVP is trying to win his fourth championship this season with the Lakers, and he has a good shot of doing it.
The Lakers have the best record in the Western Conference with LeBron and Anthony Davis leading the way. James is averaging 25.1 points, 7.5 rebounds and 10.8 assists on the season while shooting 48.7 percent from the field, 34.5 percent from beyond the arc and 68.8 percent from the free-throw line.
Davis, meanwhile, is putting up 27.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game in his first season with the Lakers. The Chicago native is shooting 50.0 percent overall and has 14 double-doubles in 31 games.
Jared Dudley is only playing 7.8 minutes per game with the Lakers. He's mostly on the team for his occasional 3-point shooting and steady locker room presence.
The Purple and Gold are back in action on Wednesday when they host the Phoenix Suns. The Lakers have won two games in a row after losing four straight.
