On April 11, Beijing time, the NBA regular season ushered in the finale, and the Lakers will challenge the Nuggets on the road. Due to the early failure to play in the playoffs, the Lakers have no pressure, and the stars in the team have chosen not to play. Today's finale, the Lakers' 5 big stars have all been truce, and James has not gone out with the team.
After determining that there was no playoff, the Lakers' big three James + Davis + Westbrook, and Anthony did not play again. In today's game, Howard will also be absent, he has been the first starter and has a good performance. But in today's finale, he needs to give way to the young players, and it is not known whether he will choose to stay this summer.
In the boarding photos posted by the Lakers before, James's figure did not appear, and today the Lakers officially revealed the details. Lakers officials said that James made an appointment with team doctor Chris Jones yesterday for a treatment on his left ankle sprain, and his absence has been approved by the Lakers.
James sprained his ankle in last month's game against the Pelicans, then returned from the Game against the Pelicans on April 2 and wanted to help the team win the game, but unfortunately failed to do so, and finally ended the season early.
Wei Shao has been persevering, and as the team misses the playoffs, he will no longer play, and may have finished playing the lakers' last game. Now there are a lot of trading dynamics about Westbrook, and Lakers chronicler Jovan Buha revealed that Westbrook's next stop may be Houston, New York or Charlotte. These teams are also the most rumored with Westbrook, and all three teams have stars that may be abandoned, Rockets' Wall, Knicks' Randle and Hornets' Hayward.
Soon, the US media nbaanalysis provided the Lakers with 2 deal plans for Westbrook, both of which were traded with the Hornets, mainly because team owner Jordan was very optimistic about Westbrook. The first: the Lakers sent Westwood, got Hayward and Plumlee, this plan is still good, all at once get two good players, as long as Hayward remains healthy, the effect should be less than Westwood.
The second: The Lakers sent Westbrook and 27-year first rounds to Get Hayward and Rozier. Reinforcing two positions at once, which is also very good, is to catch the first round of 27 years.
These two schemes are good, but the Hornets are not necessarily willing to provide it, after all, they already have three goals in the team, and if they get Westbrook, it will affect the development of three goals.
