The touch of the Lakers is mediocre! The Pelicans backcourt star needs to do better offensively?
12:21am, 15 July 2025【Basketball】
In a previous NBA Las Vegas summer league game, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the New Orleans Pelicans 94-81. After this game, the Lakers won the first victory in the Las Vegas Summer League, with a current record of 1 win and 1 loss, while the Pelicans suffered two consecutive losses since the start of the Summer League, with a current record of 0 win and 2 losses.
In this game, the Pelicans' starting wing star Lester Quinones' performance was not ideal and did not show his due level. Giniones played 22 minutes and 13 seconds in the whole game, made 3 of 9 shots and 3 of 6 shots from outside the three-point line, scored 9 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals, and had 1 turnover and 5 fouls, with a plus-minus value of -5. Giniones did not show his due scoring ability on the offensive end, his offensive efficiency was not ideal, and he did not get too many points. In addition, Giniones also lacks sufficient passing ability and organizational ability. Giniones showed some characteristics on the defensive end, but his actual defensive ability itself is also relatively average. Overall, Giniones did not fully play the role in this game, and his performance was also somewhat different from everyone's expectations.
In the previous game of losing to the Minnesota Timberwolves, Giniones made 7 of 12 shots, 5 of 8 from the three-point line, and 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 20 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal. There were 3 turnovers and 6 fouls, with a plus-minus value of +3. Giniones performed quite well in the previous game. He showed his strong scoring ability. He also seized the opportunity to get a lot of points through his own outside shooting, providing a lot of support to the team on the offensive end. However, it seems that his stability on the offensive end is still relatively average, and he cannot fully display his offensive end in every game.
Gigniones has performed very well in the NBA Development League field before and is a very good scorer. However, the problem is that Giniones' performance in the NBA is actually very average, and he has no way to play his scoring ability in the NBA. Currently Giniones is holding a two-way contract, but everyone knows that the stability of players in two-way contracts is seriously insufficient. If Giniones cannot show enough competitiveness in the next NBA summer league, his position may be replaced by other players at any time. In the next game, Giniones also needs to do better.
