Sports analyst Skip Bayless has been an avid critic of LeBron James and the Lakers. However, now he thinks that the new-look Lakers have potential.

According to him, parting ways with Russell Westbrook and adding players like D’Angelo Russell made a huge different for the Purple and Gold.

“I have told you since the trade deadline I LIKE THIS LAKERS TEAM! I love that LeBron has come back refreshed, the way he went into the Bubble,” Bayless said on UNDISPUTED.

“DLo is a talent, Austin Reaves is proving he belongs in this league and in this lineup, and LeBron is refreshed. You’ve got something here,” he added in a tweet.
