James may consider Perkins' bold advice to the Lakers

After a listless start to the season, the Los Angeles Lakers appear to have recovered to form. After beating the Houston Rockets on Monday, they have won four of their last five games.

Although the Lakers are getting better and better, the Lakers are still adjusting their lineup combinations. While LeBron James, Russell Westbrook and Anthony Davis have locked up their respective positions, head coach Frank Vogel can still make changes for the other two.

If you ask ESPN analyst Kendrick Perkins, Vogel should pick a player: "Austin Reeves. Perkins even suggested on Twitter that Kent Bazemore's playing time should be left to the unknown rookie. Vogel needed to leave All Ofemore's time to Reeves. But I understand that the Lakers may have promised Him playing time when Kent signed. ”

Bazemore has been a shooting guard since the beginning of the season and is the Lakers' top outside defender. He averaged 7.2 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 28.2 minutes per game. However, Rivers has been consistent on the bench, getting 50-50 balls, making extra passes, keeping big men out of the box and making a lot of invisible contributions. It's not surprising that every time the Lakers win a game, his score is high.

While Reeves can seem a little nervous at times, we can't blame the fans, as fans immediately think of former Lakers guard Alex Caruso whenever the undrafted winger from Oklahoma comes on the court.
