On December 14, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season was in full swing. In yesterday's focus battle, the Lakers defeated the Magic 106:94 at home, in addition to James, who scored 30 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, the young Tucker also performed well, playing 30 minutes, 7 of 14 with 19 points, 3 assists and 6 steals, and 6 steals to create a new Tucker career high.
Earlier today, Jordan Schultz reported that as many as seven teams have already targeted Tucker for their trade. Jordan Schultz was told that they would have to pay "a lot" if they wanted to get Tucker.
Tucker, who turned 21 at the end of last month, averaged 28.8 minutes per game this season, averaging 11.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.3 steals, shooting 40.6 percent from the field and 27.8 percent from three-point range. It is worth mentioning that Tucker has missed the first 13 games this season due to injury, and after his return from injury, he won the trust of manager Vogel, scoring 12 starts in 15 games. Due to the Lakers' unsatisfactory record, this has also caused Vogel to receive a lot of criticism.
In an interview yesterday, Tucker said: "I feel comfortable with my current role in the Lakers (starting), and I think as the season progresses, I will have more room for improvement." ”
Tucker was selected by the Lakers with the 16th pick in the second round of the 2019 Draft and played for the Lakers for three seasons in his career. In the 2019-20 season, Tucker won the NBA championship with the Lakers. Tucker's three most important stats of the season have set career highs.
