Max Christie on his time as a Laker:

“At 19, to be drafted and to be able to play for a franchise as prestigious as the Los Angeles Lakers is something I'll always cherish. These last two and a half years have been filled with joy, growth, and memories I will never take for granted. Thank you to my teammates, the staff, and the Laker fans for your support of me. Proud to have earned the opportunity to play the game I love at the highest level for such a storied organization. As for my new path going forward, I'm extremely excited to begin a new chapter and embrace my new opportunity with the Dallas Mavericks. Blessed to be part of another great organization with great fans, players, and staff who have such high goals and expectations for the franchise. Can't wait to get started.”
