After being eliminated in the first round of last season, the Lakers management made a big adjustment to the lineup this summer, but with the progress of the new season, the Lakers' performance is still not satisfactory, the current record is 15 wins and 13 losses ranked sixth in the West, and the Warriors, Suns and other teams still have a big gap, want to get out of the predicament, the fastest and best way is to make a deal.
Wills
Today's report from open-air stand sports reporter Jake Fischer said that because the big three's run-in did not meet the team's expectations, the Lakers have begun to discuss the possibility of trading Wei Shao. The Lakers have also locked in three potential targets, namely The Pistons' Grant, pacers Turner, and Philadelphia's 76ers Ben Simmons!
However, Wei Shao's current contract has 2 years and 91 million left, which has become a negative asset, and it is very difficult for the Lakers to send it away directly. In the eyes of other teams in the league, the Lakers currently have only two quality chips in the lineup, namely Tucker Jr. and Nunn, so the Lakers want to trade less, and perhaps Tucker and Nunn and some draft picks will also be packed together.
This season, Westbrook averaged 36 minutes per game, averaged 19.5 points, 8.4 assists, and 7.7 rebounds, shooting 45.1 percent from the field, but only 32.4 percent and 67.7 percent from three-point range and free throws, and averaged 4.6 turnovers per game. For the Lakers, Westbrook's biggest drawback is the lack of outside shooting ability, resulting in insufficient space in the team lineup.
Subsequent reports from reporters that, except for players like LeFwall, no team in the league is willing to get Westbrook, nor can it match Westbrook's contract. The Philadelphia 76ers had no interest in Wei Shao.
