The Los Angeles Lakers hiring Kim Kardashian's trainer certainly makes for Hollywood headlines, but there's also legitimate hope here for fans of the team.
In addition to stars such as Kardashian, Penelope Cruz, and Sly Stallone, Peterson has worked with a host of high-profile athletes. One of those athletes is tennis icon Pete Sampras, who gave Peterson a signed racquet thanking the trainer for extending his career, per a 2006 Sports Illustratedpiece.
