Lakers news: Green praises Doncic and intends to 18+10 center

Green praised Doncic for its offseason this year, Lakers star Luka Doncic carried out strict diet control plans and hard training, and achieved considerable results. Doncic lost weight all over, his belly became smaller, his muscle lines became obvious, and even his mental state improved. Today, Warriors forward Drummond Green praised Doncic on social media. Green said: "Luca has become a rookie self again. This deal has inspired his hunger and aspirations. This summer, Luca will enter training camp directly from the European Championship. This is a perfect oversight, and he will enter the battle better and faster! I think Luca is definitely the number one hottest player in the new season's MVP competition."

The fans talked about Green's remarks, and some people said: " Forget it, I don’t know whether weight loss is a good thing or a bad thing. After all, Doncic’s style of play relies heavily on body crushing. In addition, the Lakers are average in competitiveness, and their record will definitely not reach the top level. Doncic cannot get MVP. "Some people said: "Doncic really has a chance. The Lakers will definitely focus on Doncic in the new season. With a lot of ball rights and shooting rights, he only needs to play against the sky data, plus the support of the league, as long as his record is good, he has a good chance to replicate the good show of Westbrook a few years ago. "So what do you think about this? You can communicate and discuss in the comment area.

Today, according to Anthony F. Irwin, a Lakers reporter from the US media "ClutchPoints", sources revealed that the Lakers are closely monitoring the situation of Bulls player Vucevic. Once Vucevic enters the buyout market, the Lakers will launch a fierce pursuit. Previously, according to Bulls reporter K.C. Johnson, the Bulls are looking for trading opportunities in the market to send Vucevic away to free up enough playing time for young players on the team. Last season, Vucevic played 73 regular season for the Bulls, and averaged 31.2 minutes per game to contribute 18.5 points, 10.1 rebounds and 3.5 assists. Currently, Vucevic's contract has $2148,000 in the last year.

Vucevic, who has an annual salary of $2,000,000, will never even look at it. After all, he is a typical attacking and weak defense, and a data brush, but if he buys out, it will be too good to have a basic salary. For the Lakers, Vucevic is definitely a more trustworthy inside choice than Hayes. He has excellent low-post singles skills and outside shooting skills, which can enrich the Lakers' offensive choices, and even surpasses the starting center Aiton in some games. Of course, there is no exact news that the Bulls have bought out Vucevic at the moment, and everything is still at the level of the Lakers' "unrequited love". The reason for the sturdy player leaving the team is exposed On June 30, Lakers player Finney Smith refused to implement the $1,540w player option next season. After jumping out of the contract and becoming a free agent, he chose to sign a new contract with the Houston Rockets for 4 years, $5,300w. Many fans are puzzled by Finney Smith's actions. On the one hand, the Rockets' forward line is crowded, and Finney Smith is likely not to get so much playing time and performance opportunities when he was with the Lakers; on the other hand, Smith has expressed more than once that he likes playing with Doncic and hopes to continue to stay with the Lakers.

Today, a reporter from the US media Clutchpoints posted a message to report the inside story of Finney Smith's departure. There are three reasons: 1. The Lakers did not show enough sincerity and respect during the negotiations with Finney Smith, which made Finney Smith feel that he was not valued; 2. In order to free up enough salary space for 27 years, the Lakers are only willing to provide a 2-year contract, which is far less than the Rockets' 4-year contract; 3. Smith had played in Dallas for 7 years, and many of his family and friends settled there. When they returned to Texas (the Rockets were also in Texas), they could get closer to their family. The author believes that Smith's departure is a win-win choice for each other, and he also found a high-paying job while returning home; and the Lakers also have the opportunity to get Laravia, Ayton and Smart to make up for the shortcomings in the lineup.
