Performance begins to decline! The possibility of a backcourt star trying to get a contract from the Lakers is declining?

In a previous NBA Las Vegas summer league game, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the New Orleans Pelicans 94-81. After this game, the Lakers won the first victory in the Las Vegas Summer League, with a current record of 1 win and 1 loss, while the Pelicans suffered two consecutive losses since the start of the Summer League, with a current record of 0 win and 2 losses.

Although the Lakers won relatively smoothly in this game, the team's starting point guard DJ Steward also showed a significant decline. Steward played 22 minutes and 33 seconds in the whole game, made 3 of 14 shots, 2 of 5 shots from outside the three-point line, and 1 of 1 free throw, scoring 9 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. There were 2 turnovers and 1 foul, with plus or negative values of +9. Steward did not perform well on the offensive end. He actually got a lot of opportunities to play, but his offensive efficiency was not ideal, and he could not play his due scoring ability. Steward's performance in passing and organization is also very average, and he has no particularly outstanding performance in this regard. Steward's performance on the defensive end is also considered to be a normal level, but this cannot change the fact that he is not efficient on the offensive end. With Steulder's ability, he should have shown stronger competitiveness on the court.

Summer League so far, Steward has averaged 24.5 minutes in the first five games, with averaging 13.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 4 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.6 blocks, and 2.2 turnovers and 1.2 fouls. His shooting percentage is 44.8%, a three-point shooting percentage of 54.5%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 88.9%. Steward has good scoring ability on the offensive end, and he can also score a lot of points in various ways. His outside shooting percentage is quite good, and he also has certain passing ability and organizational ability. Steward's performance on the defensive end is also worthy of recognition, and he is also a good defender. Judging from the overall performance of the summer league, Steward is also an all-round player with both offense and defense.

However, in the last two games, Steward's performance has also declined significantly. His offensive efficiency is not as good as before, and it seems that he is a little too hasty. He has also had some problems with his offensive choices. Steward should be one of the best players and best scorers in the summer league level, but the instability he showed in these two games is also very worrying. Steward definitely hopes that he can attack an NBA contract, but his performance will make him farther and farther away from the NBA?
