On March 2, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continues to unfold, and the Lakers will sit at home today to meet the Lone Rangers. The last fiasco of the Pelicans 28 points also put the Lakers under a lot of pressure, and finally the team also made some changes, made some adjustments to the lineup, and officially reached 2 signings and 2 cuts.
The Lakers officially announced that the team officially cut Jordan Jr. and Dunbua Jr., freeing up 2 player spots, and the team soon signed DJ Augustine and Gabriel.
Among them, Jordan Jr. is officially contracted, and he is also expected to be cut, and he has lost the rotation place in the team. Jordan Jr.'s net efficiency this season is -12.3, the lowest of all Lakers players who have played more than 40 minutes. Jordan Jr. played 32 games for the Lakers this season, averaging 12.8 minutes per game and contributing 4.1 points and 5.4 rebounds. After becoming a free agent, Jordan Jr. is not without the ball to play, the 76ers are very interested in him, and the two sides are expected to reach a signing.
After cutting Jordan Jr., the Lakers quickly signed veteran Augustine and became a member of the team. Augustine played for the Rockets this season, was cut on the trade deadline, and has been left unobtrusive since then, and now the Lakers have given them a chance. Augustine has played in 34 games for the Rockets this season, averaging 5.4 points, 1.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game, shooting 40.6 percent from three-point range.
In addition, Dunbuya is a two-way contract, gabriel and the Lakers signed a two-way contract, this change is also to make up for the gap in the internal line, to prevent the emergence of no one available.
With the official completion of the 2-draw and 2-cut, the Lakers' 17-man roster was updated: James, Davis, Westbrook, Howard, Tucker Jr., Munch, Nunn, Ariza, Bradley, Ellington, Reeves, Johnson, Howard, Ariza, Mozmore; two-way contract players: Mason Jones and Gabriel.
Now the Lakers are plagued by injuries, Davis will be absent for a while, and Nunn has not yet played in the regular season.
