Since the free market opened on July 1, the Los Angeles Lakers have made a series of operations that all look good. However, there is still a vacancy on their roster, and that is that they need a big player to find a suitable replacement for Anthony Davis. As I analyzed the other day, the team needs to find a suitable replacement for Anthony Davis, and while Jackson Hayes is a good choice, he is not yet fully qualified for the role. On the 5th, Walshen broke the news that the Magic had cut interior player Pol Pol. This is a great opportunity for the Lakers.
Last year, Boll's performance with the Magic was the best and healthiest of his career. He played in 70 games for the Magic, averaging 9 points, 6 rebounds and 1 block per game. Previously, he spent three seasons with the Nuggets. Due to injuries and being excluded from the rotation, he has never played more than 32 games in a season. Will the Lakers seriously consider him? There is no doubt that they will seriously consider it.
At 2.18 meters tall, Boll has a variety of offensive skills, both inside and outside shooting. He shot 54.6 percent from the field, was good at grabbing rebounds and blocks, and was excellent in offensive and defensive transitions. Due to his leaner body, he moves and runs more flexibly. Anthony Davis can only play 56 regular-season games a year, so Pol would be a great option to take the pressure off bushy brows during the regular season.
However, Boll's flaws are also evident. He is easily injured and cannot withstand high-intensity physical confrontation under the basket. In addition, he is prone to slipping when switching defensively, and Ball prefers to attack from the outside, but he only shoots 26.5% from three-point range, compared to 36% from three-point range by his younger brother Boshen.
Despite these shortcomings, Pol is not yet 24 years old and has huge potential to tap. In addition, he has proven himself with the Magic, so the Lakers must seize this opportunity and try to sign him.
