The Lakers officially announced the signing of four players, and the competition for two-way contracts is fierce. Is it true love for the 23+5 insider?

With the end of the summer league and the NBA's long-term period has officially begun, the Lakers' management is very busy, and there are rumors about them almost every day. But everything didn't come true, it seemed like the thunder was loud and the rain was small. The Lakers' real operation was more about signing marginal players.

Now the Lakers officially announced that they have officially signed four players, including RJ Davis, Eric Dickson, Arthur Karuma and Maculionis. The Lakers only have one two-way contract quota, but the competition is extremely fierce, especially for inside Eric Dixon, because the latter did not participate in the summer league with the team due to injury, but the management still gave him a chance.

We briefly introduce four players, among which RJ Davis was once the captain of the University of North Carolina. As a double-season guard, he averaged 17.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists per game last season, and the data looks very good. However, RJ Davis has been playing in college for five years and is now 23 years old. In addition, his body is limited, making him a undrafted draft. Now he has to strive to compete for a two-way contract quota.

However, Eric Dixon, probably because the Lakers' frontcourt was too shabby, the management was very patient with him. You should know that Eric Dixon is also an older undrafter, even a little older than RJ Davis. Last season, he averaged 23.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game. Eric Dixon is a space-based insider, with a three-point shooting percentage of more than 40% last season, which is quite popular in the league today. However, his overall shooting percentage of 45.1% looks average, and due to a foot injury, Eric Dixon did not represent the Lakers in the summer league at all, which will inevitably increase uncertainty. During the period from Arthur Karuma, he was a bit homeless, playing for four years at Clayton, Kansas State and the University of Texas. Last season, he averaged 12.3 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. As an older rookie, this data is also very average. Even if he represents the Lakers in the summer league, Arthur Karuma's highlights are not good. He is an ordinary substitute player. It may be difficult for him to stand out in this competition.

Finally, Machulionis, the main feature of this player is that he is good at organizing and connecting, and ranked third in the division last season in terms of assists per game. The Lakers are not short of defenders now. The starting players include Doncic, James and Reeves, who all need to hold the ball, and Smart and Vincent are also on the bench. Maculionis' pressure is doubled.
