Prior to the trade deadline, the Wizards traded Harrell to the Hornets, with Ismail Smith, Vernon Carey and a second-round pick.
Harrell looked happy, and after the game, he wrote on social media: "It was the funniest game I've played in recent times, I can't lie, but it feels amazing! Fans didn't buy it, commenting below: "You said the same thing when you first came to the Wizards. "See through not to say broken, people are difficult not to tear down."
In October 2021, Harrell said when he first arrived at the Wizards: "The Wizards are a tough and tenacious team, and everyone is focused on the court. That's what a Washington team should be doing, that's who we are! At the same time, he also sneered at the Lakers: "Last season I didn't get reused on that team, and I felt like I hadn't played in a season." ”
On February 6, 2022, Harrell angrily exclaimed, "It's so bad dude, now it's the state of this F***ing team." Too TM oops! "About a month ago, Harrell and Pope clashed in the locker room and the two men threw fists at each other. The reason is also very simple, only because Pope did not pass the ball to Harrell in the last attack of the first half.
Harrell and Pop were teammates during the Lakers, everyone was acquaintances, and they ended up fighting in the Wizards. Pop hasn't clashed with his teammates in the NBA's years, so wizards management and fans have pointed the finger at Harrell, after all, he is a famous thorn. Since then, Harrell has been doomed to be traded.
Harrell has played in 46 games for the Wizards this season, averaging 24.3 minutes per game, 14.1 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.1 assists, shooting 64.5 percent from the field. For comparison, Harrell played in 69 games for the Lakers last season, averaging 13.5 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 23 minutes per game, shooting 62.2 percent from the field.
Harrell has indeed improved with the Wizards this season, but his personality has given the team a lot of headaches. Throughout Harrell's entire NBA career, there have been out-of-line moves on almost every team. In the 2019-20 Western Conference Semifinals G6, the Clippers lost to the Nuggets and were dragged into the seventh by their opponents. Ka george jr. was all dejected after losing, but Harrell whistled.
In this game, Harrell played 15 minutes and scored only 5 points on 2-of-4 shooting. The team lost + he played badly, and Harrell actually had the heart to whistle, which caused dissatisfaction among many Clippers fans. In addition, Harrell and George also clashed in that series, both of them using swearing language.
In the 2019-20 season, Harrell played his career best performance with the Clippers, averaging 18.6 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, both of which are career-highs. Harrell won the season's best sixth man and best fight awards, and even so, the Clippers still did not choose to keep him. In the 2020 offseason, Harrell joined the Lakers for $2 years and $19 million...
When he was with the Lakers, Harrell also publicly accused Vogel because he was dissatisfied with the playing time. After being traded by the Lakers, Harrell wrote on social media: "Packing away from Los Angeles, meeting some interesting people here, and meeting some people who shouldn't know, it's time to cut off contact with a lot of people!" ”
If Harrell doesn't change his temper, maybe after this contract expires, he will have no ball to play...
