Three players who are expected to be bought out to join the Los Angeles Lakers. #NBA#
1. Gary Harris
He has averaged 11.6 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks this season
Harris is a decent 3D player who can strengthen the Lakers' guard line depth, especially if Horton Tucker's performance this season has not met the Lakers' expectations.
2. Tristan Thompson
He has averaged 6 points and 5.4 rebounds per game this season
This season, head coach Vogel has basically abandoned Jordan Jr. and Dwight Howard, and the small squad has not had the desired effect. Thompson is naturally an option for James and can also relieve the pressure of the inside line of thick eyebrows.
Thompson has just been traded to the Pacers, and the rebuilding Pacers have a large number of talented interior players inside: Miles Turner, Jaylen Smith, Osher Brisset, Isaiah Jackson, Goga Beatazer, and is likely to be bought out.
3. Dennis Schroeder
He is averaging 14.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 0.8 steals this season
Schroeder has just been traded to the Houston Rockets, and while re-signing Schroeder is a bit awkward for the Lakers, the Lakers' current backcourt is indeed the biggest problem.
Schroeder can alleviate James' pressure to hold the ball, and has a good ability to impact the basket and finish, and may be able to make up for Westbrook's shortcomings to some extent.
