The Lakers will send Jordan Jr. and Bazemore away

After yesterday's victory over the Kings, the Lakers won three straight wins without a thick eyebrow! Although the recent state is excellent, but still can not hide the team's low defensive efficiency, the height of the front line is not enough to solve the problem, the Lakers management still needs to make adjustments to the lineup.

According to reporter Windhorst today, the Lakers will consider trading Jordan Jr. and Bazemore. The reporter said in the program: "James's performance in the center position is getting better and better, the thick eyebrow brother is about to return, the Lakers may trade Jordan Jr., they don't need to get any chips, they just want to vacate a lineup place; in addition, Bazemore has fallen out of the team rotation and may also be sent away by the Lakers." The Lakers will make amends in the buyout market after freeing up the quota. ”

In the offseason Jordan Jr. was traded by the Nets to the Pistons and then cut, and finally joined the Lakers with a veteran base salary, and was the Lakers' starting center at the beginning of the season, but his status has declined severely, averaging 4.5 points + 5.7 rebounds + 0.3 assists per game this season, and the defensive efficiency is the bottom of the league. Bazemore left the Warriors and the Lakers in the offseason to sign a veteran base salary, and was also given high expectations by the Lakers at the beginning of the season, but the performance was surprising, averaging 4.3 points + 2 rebounds per game this season, and the three-point shooting rate was only 34%.

In addition, according to the reporter's disclosure, the Lakers will sign another 10-day short contract with Stanley Johnson tomorrow, and even do not rule out giving him a formal contract. The 25-year-old striker has averaged 8 points, 3 rebounds and 1.5 assists in the past two games, and the defensive effect he has shown can share a lot of pressure for James.
