The Los Angeles Lakers want an aggressive approach to the 2022-23 season in which their Big Three should thrive.

Davis told reporters Saturday that the team's new game plan will allow each player to do his thing, despite the fact that they often stepped on each other's toes.

Davis said that the biggest thing was that everyone was trying to be kind. Russ, you get it. You get it,Bron. The person is whoever. That has helped all of us.

Davis added a new thing.

We want to do things for our teammates but at the same time we have to get going. Whoever gets it, we want to be aggressive because it will open up the floor for everyone else.

The ball gets lost around the perimeter or we're going against the shot clock when we're all trying to be selfish. It opens up the floor when someone is aggressive and Russ is going downhill. They can kick it out to the shooters because of their aggressiveness.

The three of them appeared in just 21 games last year due to injuries.

The Purple and Gold finished 11th in the Western Conference and missed out on the playoffs.

In his first season with the team, he averaged 18 points, 7.4 rebound and 7.1 assists, while shooting 44.4% from the floor and 29.8% from deep.

During the off-season, the Lakers decided to part ways with Westbrook. L.A. has been unwilling to attach their first-round picks to facilitate a trade for the veteran point guard.

If the Lakers want to improve this season, they'll have to find a way for him to be happy. It will have to make sure both James and Davis are healthy.

In order to start the year, Ham would like to start Westbrook along with James and Davis.

"We have a three-man package that they're going to thrive in, and it involves all three of them." I'm looking forward to that being at a very high level. There are different things they can do with it. I have faith in all three of them.

L.A.'s starting five will likely include Damian Jones and Kendrick Nunn.

The team's new strategy should be on full display when the Lakers play the Kings on Monday.
