LeBron James said Marc Gasol and Dennis Schroder could take playmaking responsibilities for the Los Angeles Lakers this season.

James noted he has no problem if he is not the primary ball handler, since both Gasol and Schroder can make plays.

“LeBron mentioned Dennis Schroder and Marc Gasol as two guys that can make plays, which in theory could lessen his playmaking responsibilities, but that’s up to Frank Vogel,” James said, via Mike Trudell of Spectrum Sportsnet.

Gasol and Schroder are two players that are expected to have a crucial role in the team’s tactics, while Schroder has expressed the desire to be a starter this season.
