The Los Angeles Lakers are surely a daunting threat to the rest of the West, with the Playoffs around the corner. Having traded away Russell Westbrook and acquired the likes of D’Angelo Russell, Mo Bamba, Jarred Vanderbilt and others before the trade deadline, they seem to have greatly strengthened their squad. With the new additions on the roster, they have won seven out of their last 11 games.

Perhaps because of such a performance, a video of three of the new Lakers showing their excitement to play beside LeBron James is doing the rounds on the internet again.

New teammates to LeBron James thrilled about their new stint

A video of D’Angelo Russell, Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt celebrating in their own style while making their way to Los Angeles was circulated today. It conveyed how much they were excited about their new turf. The video starts with the players getting into a car to make their way to the airport. They board a plane to reach California’s largest city, where they can be seen enjoying their destination. The clip goes on to spotlight some of Russell’s plays with the Lakers this season.

The stars in the video have shown their mettle on hardwood. While fans might not have seen much of Russell’s playmaking or scoring as he is currently injured, they have definitely witnessed Vando’s defensive prowess and Beasley’s shooting ability in the past few games.
