José Manuel Calderón spoke about his move to Los Angeles Lakers during the team’s media day.

“I do not have to prove anything, but to try and adapt to a totally different role for me. No doubt it will be a major challenge for me”, the Spanish international admits on EFE

Calderon will face his 12th season in the league. “It ‘s always good, so to speak, to put on your resume that you have been a Laker. It is a unique and important experience, and hopefully be as positive as possible.”

Calderon admitted that after hearing the news of his signing with the Lakers, he chatted with Pau Gasol. “Pau always told me wonders about the city and the team”. Calderon has settled with his family near the area of Manhattan Beach.

In his new team, he will meet Huertas, after playing against each other in international events. This year, the Lakers have plenty of overseas players, with the presence of Calderon, Huertas, Mozgov, Zubac, Deng and Jianlian.
