The rest of the teams are hitting the playoffs, and the Lakers, who are out early, have begun to prepare draft information.
According to Los Angeles reporter Matthew Barrero, management led by Pelinka auditioned six rookies yesterday.
Nigerian talent striker Kaodirichi Ehiogu (Ehiogu), who became famous for touching rebounds last year, was also included in the trial list.
It is worth mentioning that the Lakers do not have any draft picks in their hands this year.
Born in 1999, Esiogu is 22 years old, 2 meters tall, weighs 86 kilograms, and plays in the third position.
Playing for the Ellington Mavericks this season, he averaged 4.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game, shooting 67 percent from the field.
In his 29 matches, Esiogu delivered a total of 74 blocks, ranking third in team history.
His teammate David Azores also signed up for the draft this year, and if the two are signed, they will be the third and fourth players in the history of the Ellington Mavericks to set foot in the NBA.
Esiogu belongs to the typical black African players, with the advantage of being a top ability belonging to the ranks of geniuses, and the disadvantage is that the technique is rough.
Can his maximum bounce reach 47.5 inches, about 120 centimeters, 6 centimeters higher than the 19-year-old Champion Zion?
In terms of playing style, Esiogu is similar to the early alphabet brother, scoring mainly by offensive and defensive conversions and empty cuts, and the projection is very poor.
The height of the defensive end can cover multiple areas, and it is good at assisting in the defensive block, but due to weight, it cannot play the third position.
This type of player belongs to Puyu, if it can be reasonably developed, then the upper limit has the possibility of becoming a second letter brother.
But the problem is how to develop rationally, which is the most difficult problem to solve in the process of cashing in on talents.
The purpose of the Lakers' trial is obvious, first of all they do not have the right to draft, and secondly, the lineup needs flanks.
These two points, Esiogu fit perfectly.
Esiogu's height, athletic talent and defensive sense of smell are all abilities that the Lakers need.
And its rough technology has led to the market has been listed as a state of failure, which is a rare reinforcement target in the eyes of the Lakers.
Considering the quality of the money, if Esiogu can impress Pelinka with defense in the second round of trials, he has a chance to play in the summer league, or even a two-way contract.
The biggest advantage of the brown brother is that it is cheap, and the Lakers happen to be one of the teams that the league likes to buy "bargains" the most.
