Hello everyone! Let's talk about the NBA today and share a few news about the NBA: Lakers championship guard leaves the team! Exposed the Lakers 7-for-2 trade Varan plan, Zhan Huang broke the record.
First of all, the Lakers championship guard leaves! Former Lakers champion Quinn Cook has left Russian club Lokomotiv Kuban, according to European basketball reporters. The parting was decided after the team consulted with Cook, who is currently on vacation in the United States and will not return to Russia to play.
Cook joined Lokomotiv Kuban in late October, where he played in six games and was able to get 5.5 points, 1 rebound and 2.7 assists. Cook left the club for a chance to return to the NBA. Several players on every team in the NBA trigger health and safety agreements, and many players in the development league were given the opportunity to sign NBA teams and even regularized their contracts.
Secondly, the US media reported the Lakers' 7-for-2 trade with Varan, the Lakers sent Bazemore, Tucker Jr., Ellington, Jordan Jr., 27 years of first-round and two second-round draft picks, from the Pelicans traded to get Hart and Valand. The US media analyzed the deal from the perspective of the Lakers:
For the Lakers, the team currently needs a wing defender and a space center, and Hart and Varland are just in line with the Lakers' needs. Hart is 1.96 meters tall, and he is taller than most Lakers guards. During the Time of the Lakers, Hart was known for his tough defense, and now the Lakers are in urgent need of high-quality outside defenders, and Hart is perfect for the Lakers.
In addition, Varan has gradually developed into a space center this season, shooting 45% from three-point range. Varan is suitable for pairing with Wei Shao, and when Varan is on the field, it can open up space for Wei Shao to attack the inside line. The Lakers have already let James play the starting center, James is about to turn 37, and playing center is too much for him. The Lakers need centers like Varland to share the pressure on James.
In the end, Zhan Huang broke the record. James led the team to victory over the Rockets today, and James scored 32 points. After this game, James scored more than 36,000 points in the regular season of his career, becoming the youngest Mr. 36,000 in history. It is worth mentioning that from 1,000 points to 36,000 points, every 1,000 points, James is the youngest player to reach the record. In addition, James is the first player in NBA history to achieve at least 36,000 points, 9,000 rebounds and 9,000 assists, and his three statistics are 36,001 points, 9,912 rebounds and 9,851 assists. After this game, James has scored at least 30 points in five consecutive games, becoming the first Lakers player to achieve this statistic since Kobe Bryant in 2013.
