Lakers traded a draft pick! Chasing the 2.16-meter center, Xiaoli refused to renew the contract, DFS jumped out of the contract
On June 27, I guess many fans watched yesterday's draft? Yang Hansen's surprise and the Nets' random operations after failing to win two favorite players, they chose five first-round picks at once. Therefore, according to Wen Pang, many teams are laughing at the Nets. Today, the second round of the NBA draft will begin. The Nets traded their second round No. 36 draw, and exchanged two future second round picks from the Suns.
The Suns seem to have some action. They won two excellent centers in the first round draft, and it is estimated that the team may have to choose a striker or point guard. Although there are not many second-round picks, some older second-round picks can also help the team through their own instant combat power. The Lakers also completed an upward trade in draft picks today. They gave away the No. 55 draw and cash, and exchanged the No. 45 draw from the Bulls.
According to famous reporter Shams, the Lakers will use the second round to choose a young genius. As for who it is, everyone is looking forward to it. According to Los Angeles Times reporter Brad, the Lakers have shifted their draft pick to 45th, targeting Creton University center Ryan Calke Brenner, who is very clear about choosing this center player. It seems that this is the substitute center that the Lakers want. What are his characteristics?
Kalke Brenner is 2.16 meters tall, has excellent low-post offensive skills and frame protection ability, and has certain three-point shooting ability. He averaged 19 points and 9 rebounds per game last season, with a three-point shooting percentage of 34.5%. He scored such excellent data, but he fell into the second round, mainly because he is an older draft and a senior player in the draft. The upper limit is not high and his playing style is basically fixed. The Lakers may want to use him as a substitute rotation center.
The Lakers have recently given Li Li a contract renewal. According to TA reporters, Reeves rejected the 4-year, 89 million contract renewal issued by the Lakers this week. He hopes to choose to jump out of the contract and become a full free agent next summer. He is expected to get a richer offer than the largest contract renewal that the Lakers can offer this summer. At the same time, sources revealed that this decision cannot reflect the relationship between Reeves and the Lakers. In fact, considering the salary rule restrictions, this result is expected.
, and according to the update of the social media of US reporter Lane, Reeves has no plans to change any future, and he still hopes to play for the Lakers for life. To be honest, as far as Xiaoli shows his potential, he will indeed pursue a big contract. After all, if he doesn't chase it at this time, the possibility of winning a big contract in the future will be even smaller. But for the Lakers, is it really worth giving Xiaoli a big contract worth hundreds of millions? He can sign a five-year contract extension of 203 million yuan after breaking out of the contract tomorrow summer.
Xiaoli can average 20.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.1 steals per game this season. If he is given enough ball rights, he can play All-Star data. Just looking at his regular season performance, he is indeed worthy of the Lakers' big contract, but Xiaoli's problem is also very obvious. His ability to fight is too poor, he will be targeted by his opponent in the playoffs, and there are not so many whistles in the playoffs, so he cannot make fouls and free throws, and his data has also been affected.
Little Li is more of a regular season player like Russell, and Doncic is not good at defense. I think the Lakers should not give Xiaoli a big contract to let him stay in the team for a long time. If it is appropriate, if Xiaoli is exchanged for an excellent center player, then the Lakers will be stronger. In addition, according to ESPN, Finney Smith, who has player options this summer, chose to jump out of the 15.4 million player option contract for the last year and enter the free market.
The Lakers are interested in reaching a multi-year contract with him. Both parties may reach a lower first-year salary in exchange for a multi-year guarantee contract to flexibly manage the salary cap. The reason for the low first-year salary is that I think it is to consider the future stay and departure of James, as well as the expiration contracts of Hachimura Shizuo, Reeves, Van Debiao and others. Finney Smith is definitely worth keeping. He has a good relationship with Doncic, and is also a top winning puzzle, one of the best 3D players in service.
In addition, Shams also made an analysis on James' player option contract. He said: What I am currently concerned about is that James may still choose to execute the player option contract, but he will not make a decision until Sunday. If the contract is broken, James can sign a three-year, 175 million contract extension with the Lakers. I think James may sign a 1+1 or 2+1 contract. If you want 2.0 in father-son basketball, then it is 2+1.
In addition, there is new news about the trade between the Lakers and the Heat. According to Hoops, the source revealed that the Lakers are unwilling to give Kneckett in Wiggins' potential trade, and the team intends to retain the rookie. Knector is indeed good at fighting power and has high potential, but Redick doesn’t need it, so it’s better to trade it! Having said that, what do you want to say about the current Lakers? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
