This is a saying that the league has three types of players. In addition to playing for the Lakers, they are former players and players who are interested in the management. Although it sounds ironic, it is indeed a reality. The Lakers are in the big city of Los Angeles and have advantages in terms of attractiveness, and the media like to use this to attract traffic.
According to CBS sports reporter Sam Quinn, the Lakers are simply casting nets in the inside signing. In addition to the players who have been exposed, three major options are now added, including two centers with All-Star qualifications, Jaret Allen and Nikola Vucevic, and the other is DeAndre Ayton. As the first pick in the draft, it is obvious that the Lakers are full of faces and do not look for unknown people at all. Although he stopped in the second round of the Eastern Conference this year, the Cavaliers performed perfectly in the regular season and ranked first in the Eastern Conference. Jarrett Allen, as the starting center, naturally made an indelible contribution. Although he has no independent offensive ability, Jarret Allen is a top blue-collar worker in the league today, and his contract is cost-effective. This season, he averaged 13.5 points, 9.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 0.9 blocks per game, with an overall shooting percentage of more than 70%. But the Cavaliers' current lineup team seems to be in a bottleneck period and must be adjusted. And according to the reporter of the team, Jarrett Allen is not a product in the absolute sense, so there will naturally be opportunities for teams like the Lakers that urgently need to strengthen the inside.
If Jaret Allen is relatively young, then Nikola Vucevic is an outdated star center. This season, he averaged 18.5 points, 10 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.8 steals per game, but Nikola Vucevic's defensive end was a big problem, even a bit like a colander, not to mention that he will be 35 years old next season. The Bulls are in the reconstruction period, and it doesn't make much sense to keep Nikola Vucevic. If the Bulls ask for a price is not high, the Lakers can fight for it.
As for DeAndre Ayton, his condition rebounded after joining the Trail Blazers. This season, DeAndre Ayton averaged 14.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1 block. He has a huge presence on the defensive end, which is that he only played 40 games this year, and his attendance rate is less than 50%, which seems to be a hidden danger. Of course, throughout his career, DeAndre Ayton was not seriously injured. It seemed that the Trail Blazers were pressing him and did not overuse it.
