On Wednesday evening, the Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Memphis Grizzlies by a score of 131-114 to fall to 4-4 in their first eight games.

The road trip was extremely disappointing, as they went just 1-4.

After the tough loss, JJ Redick met with the media.

When he was on the final question, he gave a short answer and walked out of the presser (h/t NBA on ESPN).

Many NBA fans reacted to Redick's actions.
