The NBA playoffs are in full swing, and for the Lakers they have already started their own offseason, and the Lakers still have a lot of work to do in this offseason. First of all, Vogel has left the team, they have to face the selection of the manager, while on the other hand the team has a lot of players whose contracts have completely expired. The Lakers also need to make a large-scale reinforcement or contract extension in the offseason this year. Maybe the Lakers we see next year could be a brand new look.
Of course, some of these players have played very well in the regular season this season. These players will bear the brunt of the need to be the target of management contract extensions. When it comes to the contract extension, we have to mention Munch, through his performance in the regular season this season, many fans seem that Munch is very worthwhile to stay with the Lakers.
Munch has averaged 13.8 points per game in the regular season this season, close to a 14-point average per game. He is the fourth highest average in points per game for the Lakers and has been a very important scorer at the Lakers this season. And his three-point shooting percentage is close to 40 percent. He has become a very stable scoring point for the team in the regular season this season. A lot of times it's through his offense that the team is able to stalemate with the opponent. At least in terms of regular season performance, his help to the Lakers is obvious, and James has praised Munch's performance many times this season, and he also has James's support.
After the end of the season, Munch also expressed his desire to stay with the Lakers. He said bluntly that he liked it very much and really liked the atmosphere of playing here. In fact, Los Angeles has always been a great attraction for players, Munch obviously wants to continue to play for the Lakers next season, and many fans believe that he is fully worthy of a contract extension and will not cost the Lakers too much salary space. First of all, Munch said that he liked the Lakers, which proved that his contract could be discussed. Moreover, Munch's personal style will not sign a particularly large contract. He's a player who's not good at defending himself, and that alone can squeeze the value of his contract.
Many professionals estimate that he can probably get an annual salary of 6 to 10 million US dollars. In fact, if he can stay in the Lakers, he may most likely get a contract with an annual salary of about 8 million. Although his base salary contract has increased considerably from last season, it is also within the acceptable range of the Lakers. After all, he is very young, he can contribute more than ten points per game, he is fully worthy of this contract, and this contract will not have much impact on the overall space of the Lakers, so it is not surprising that he will renew his contract with the Lakers. Don't know if fans think Munch will stay with the Lakers in the offseason? Comments are welcome in the comments section.
