What happened: Los Angeles coaches adjusted the final third of Thursday's camp session after a physical opening stretch. JJ Redick credited the wings for establishing that physicality.

Why it matters: Early physical practices set the standard for perimeter play entering the 2026-27 season. Los Angeles must trim its roster to 15 by Oct. 20, keeping competition for wing minutes in focus.

What to watch: Los Angeles continues camp ahead of the preseason schedule. Rotation work on the wing bears watching as cuts approach.
