Becoming closer and closer to the opening of the free market, the operations of various teams are constantly emerging. In the past period of time, many teams have completed operations to varying degrees. For example, the Cavaliers, the number one in the East, completed one transaction, and the Warriors have sent many qualification quotes, leaving behind a player in the team. The Lakers have also completed new operations. Let's take a look at the specific news together. NBA One Night: The Warriors gave 3 qualification quotes, the Lakers also operated, and the number one signing of Ball in the East.

Let's talk about the Knights for 1 for 1 first. The Knights and the Bulls, the number one in the East, completed the transaction, and Ball and Okoro exchanged their bosses. Last season, Ball averaged 7.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.3 steals per game, and his shooting percentage was 36.6%, but personal attendance was still a big problem. Ocorro had a contract for the remaining two years, and the Cavaliers sent him to a certain extent for the next salary space. After all, Ball was an expiring contract. At the same time, if Ball could stay healthy, he could provide the team's desired tandem and defense for the backcourt.

In addition, you also gave a four-year contract of 38 million. They chose to keep Merrill. He played 71 games last season and averaged 7.2 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game. However, for the Cavaliers, they have one thing to consider next, that is, the backcourt players piled up too much. They already have Mitchell, Garland, Big Ball, Jerome, Merrill, Jaglin and the No. 49 pick, and there will be certainly operational next. Judging from the current situation, Jerome may find it difficult to stay in the team, and Garland's stay and stay are also highly concerned. The salary of this lineup of the Cavaliers has been overwhelmed. The Warriors have also started their own operations, first of all, Kuminga. Earlier, the team officially provided Kuminga with a qualification offer of $7.9 million. He will become a restricted free agent. The Warriors have the right to match the quotation contracts offered by other teams. So far this season, Kumingga has averaged 15.3 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 45.4%. He also maintained a good performance in the playoffs, with a three-point shooting percentage once reaching 40%. Currently, three teams including the Kings, the Heat and the Bulls are interested in chasing Kumingga, and the Chinese Kings are the leader. It was difficult for the Warriors to keep Kuminga because he was going to chase a contract with an average salary of more than $30 million. The Warriors also sent two qualification quotes. They offered a double-gun qualification offer to Armstrong and Nick Mannyon, and both became restricted free agents. Payton Jr. is likely to not return to the Warriors, and this news comes from a report by a Bay Area reporter. Finally, the Warriors are expected to execute Post's team option of $1.9 million. Last season, he averaged 8.1 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game, with a three-point shooting percentage of 40.8%. He is a good rotation player. The main reason is that the contract is low and the cost-effectiveness is high.

The last one is the Lakers. The Lakers' inside reinforcement has been discussed, but from the current situation, they are facing great difficulties. Lakers reporters said that all teams realize that the Lakers urgently need a center, and they take this opportunity to ask the Lakers to provide more bargaining chips. Judging from the current situation, if the Lakers can complete compensation for high-quality centers, then Kneckett will inevitably be one of the bargaining chips.

In addition to the operations completed in the draft, the Lakers also implemented Goodwin's team option of $2.35 million in the 25-26 season. Last season, he averaged 5.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game in 29 games, and had a three-point shooting percentage of 38.2%. It is quite cost-effective to keep him. After all, with such performance, such a salary can be used as a good rotation lineup in the regular season. But the problem is that the personal state is too fluctuating.

How to strengthen the Lakers' inside line in the future is one of the focus of attention from the outside world. In addition, when will the operations of other teams appear, we still have to wait for discussions from all parties and team choices.
