There was Ruhr Deng in the front, kendrick Nunn in the back, and the Lakers management repeated the mistakes of the past and sent poison contracts. "Open Air Stand" reporter Eric Pinkas wrote an analysis that if the Lakers gave Nunn $35,000 less, they could sign Reeves to a three-year middle-class instead of a two-year salary.
Last offseason, the Lakers signed Nunn with some mini-mid-class exceptions, $5 million this season, and $5.25 million next season, and Because the injury has not improved, Nunn is not expected to play for the Lakers.
At the same time, the Lakers also signed a two-year partially guaranteed basic salary contract with Reeves, which is guaranteed by $100,000 this season and no guarantee next season. The Lakers' middle-class exception is $5.9 million, and if they give Nunn $35,258 less, they can sign the rest of the money to a three-year contract with Reeves, starting at $925258.
However, some netizens said that Reeves is not worth the middle-class contract, he has no future in the Lakers, the three-point projection is unstable, the defense is easy to be targeted, in addition to creating a small number of fouls, the basic alignment can not take advantage.
So far this season, Reeves has averaged 22.6 minutes per game and can have 6.6 points, 3 rebounds and 1.6 assists, which is a little mediocre. However, his competition enthusiasm is a big selling point, but he can only get an annual salary of about $2-3 million at most.
