Cut 22+7+5!Cut 20+6+5!The whole league wants to trade him, but he's not for sale
If a young NBA player has very good stats and strong strength, then he will definitely be favored by major teams. Moreover, this player also has a very cost-effective contract, so he is a positive asset and a high-quality resource for the team. Bulls management is now actively peddling LaVine, but LaVine's average of 20+4+4 per game is a little mediocre and inefficient, coupled with his five-year, $215 million super contract, which discourages many teams. So what type of player is what the major teams are vying for? Cut 22+7+5! Cut 20+6+5! The whole league wants to trade him, but he is not for sale.
American media NBA reporters wrote an article analyzing that in the active league, Doncic, Edwards, Alexander, Haliburton, Morant and other young stars have become non-selling products for their respective teams. The superstars of the younger generation, the talent and strength are exploding, and the cornerstone of the team is indeed irreplaceable. For example, Bulls guard Caruso averages 9.5 points + 3.5 rebounds + 2.3 assists + 1.3 steals + 0.8 blocks per game, shooting 55.3% from the field, 46.8% from three-point range (high efficiency, good defense), annual salary of 9 million, super cost-effective, and a large number of teams across the league are vying to trade Caruso.
A reporter from American media ESPN previously reported that the Lakers are very interested in trading DeRozan and Caruso, and the Bucks also strongly want to trade Caruso, but LaVine's trade market is lower. The Bulls are also interested in striking a deal with the Lakers, they want to send LaVine away first, and Bulls management named Lakers guard Reaves as a core bargaining chip. However, Lakers reporters reported that the Lakers will not offer Reaves in the trade chips because the latter is a non-sale player and must not be moved.
Although Reaves was only drafted, he rose to the top and quickly became the most effective helper next to James and the thick eyebrows. Now, among the role players of the Lakers, Reaves is the best, he has contributed an average of 20+5+5 data per game in the last ten games, shooting 52% from the field and 46% from three-point range, which is very efficient. Reaves is finally back to the supernatural form of last season's playoffs: he averaged 21 points + 5.4 rebounds + 6.2 assists per game against the Nuggets in the Western Conference finals. Reaves has certainly played All-Star guard stats and quality lately, but Russell has been sluggish.
Recently, the Lakers played the Spurs, and Reaves shot 7 of 10 efficiently, cutting down the data of 22 points + 7 rebounds + 5 assists + 1 steal. The Lakers played against the Timberwolves, and Reaves scored another 20 points + 6 rebounds + 5 assists + 2 steals. The Lakers and the Bulls played against each other, and Reaves contributed 21 points + 1 assist + 3 steals + 1 steal + 1 block. In the game between the Lakers and the Knicks, Reaves contributed 20 points + 3 rebounds + 7 assists + 2 steals. Reaves recently scored 20+ in 4 consecutive games, 20+ in 7 out of 10 games, and the lowest was 15 points + 4 rebounds + 8 assists in a single game, which is the most in the league among role players, even compared to star guards.
In the offseason, Reaves became a free agent, and teams like the Spurs, Raptors, Kings, and Rockets all wanted Reaves, and a whole bunch of teams across the league wanted Reaves. However, Reaves ultimately chose to renew his contract with the Lakers for $54 million over four years, with an average annual salary of $13.5 million, and Reaves' contract is very cost-effective. As the Lakers' third scoring point, contributing an average of 20+5+5 data per game, and extremely efficient, the contract is super cost-effective, no wonder the Lakers management refuses to use Reaves as a bargaining chip, who doesn't want such a young player?
