Average of 18+5! Annual salary of $29 million, the Lakers dream forward line is here

According to the NBA China official website, it is unlikely that the Lakers will complete a contract renewal with Hachimura before the training camp begins. In the 24-25 season, Hachimura averaged 13.1 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 50.9%/41.3%/77% in three events and a true shooting percentage of 61.9%.

Strictly speaking, compared with the 23-24th Yamura Shuo.

Take scoring efficiency as an example.

23-24 season, 0.237 points/round, but in the 24-25 season, it dropped sharply to 0.200 points/round. However, in February 25, Hachimura performed well, with averaging 16.4 teams in the same period, second in overall shooting percentage. It can be said that the team's offensive firepower was guaranteed to a certain extent in the early stages of the trade between Doncic and Davis.

Overall, even if there is a regression on the offensive end, it is still worthy of the annual salary of $17 million.

But the defensive end is quite eye-catching, especially in the playoffs.

Not to mention misplaced defense Gobert and Conley, they are Randall and McDaniels in the same position. They shot 52.4% and 55.6% respectively under Hachimura's defense. From the side, Hachimura's poor defense at the same position is also one of the reasons why the Lakers were easily eliminated.

is also news from the NBA China official website: The Heat are willing to listen to Wiggins' offer, and the Bucks and other teams are interested. In the 24-25 season, the Warriors and the Heat teams averaged 18.0 points and 4.5 rebounds per game. As a forward, he has a data average of 18+5 per game, and this performance is one of the main rotations even in the forward team. In fact, in my opinion Wiggins is the Lakers' dream front line.

First, while his offensive firepower is not inferior to Hachimura Shizuo, Wiggins also has certain ability to hold the shot. For example, the score rate of 52.9% per game in the 24-25 season is 9.2 breakthroughs per game, which means that every two breakthroughs are completed.

Second, the performance on the defensive end is not inferior to any Lakers player at this stage. Let me say that Wiggins' defense is very flexible.

For example, in the 222 playoffs, you can not only lead players in the same position as Tatum and Doncic, but also swing down and up to switch backcourt and inside players like Morant and Jokic. To put it more, Wiggins can limit his opponent's shooting rate from 43.7% to 38.6% overall in the playoffs.

Third, Wiggins and Doncic are both players under Bill Duffy. With the same agent, the Lakers are still very likely to get it to the same agent. In fact, rumors of a trade with Wiggins before the free agents were opened were revealed.

Fourth, although Wiggins' annual salary is as high as $29 million, the positive is that the period is only 2 years. The short term is short, and it doesn't affect the team's subsequent operations in the end, especially the so-called 27-year plan.

To sum up the above four points, the dream can be understood as:

First of all, Wiggins' relative offense and defense characteristics are something that the Lakers cannot do at this stage. Secondly, being the same broker as Doncic means that the probability of trading is very high. Furthermore, the short contract term will have little impact on the team's subsequent future.

Now, it is obvious that the Lakers will not renew their contracts in the short term. To put it bluntly, trade Wiggins with him as the main body.
