Amazing debut! 14 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks on 9 shots! He is indeed the ideal center that the Lakers desire.

In the last 4.1 seconds of regular time, the Portland Trail Blazers, who were three points behind, had the final right to attack! Holiday then sent the ball to his teammate Sharp, but Sharp failed to catch the key ball well and accidentally let go. Fortunately, Grant got this precious ball at the life-saving moment. At the moment when the game time was about to run out, Grant turned around and shot a tying three-pointer! Unfortunately, the ball did not enter the basket very obediently. At this point, the game is over, the Portland Trail Blazers lost to the Utah Jazz 129-132!

Frankly speaking, it is a pity that the Trail Blazers failed to win the preseason finale away from home! Because in the final stage of the game, Coach Billups put Grant, Jrue Holiday, and Klingen on the court with the purpose of winning the preseason finale, but the final result was still unsatisfactory!

In this campaign, Yang Hansen was deeply troubled by foul trouble. With 7 minutes and 41 seconds left in the fourth quarter, he was sent off for his sixth foul of the game! In the end, Yang Hansen's statistics for this game were fixed at 15 minutes and 1 seconds of playing, 1 of 2 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, only 3 points, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block, 3 turnovers and 6 fouls.

What is particularly worth mentioning is that Yang Hansen, who left the field after committing a foul, covered his face and cried after returning to the bench. That moment was really touching! After the game, Yang Hansen revealed in an interview the reason why he cried at the end. He said that he was very emotional at the time, firstly because he left the game with six fouls, and secondly because he really did not play well in this game!

Frankly speaking, it is really understandable that Yang Hansen left the scene and cried after being charged! Because Yang Hansen happened to encounter Jazz center Walker Kessler who went wild in his preseason debut today. In this campaign, Jazz center Walker Kessler, who made his preseason debut, performed brilliantly on both offense and defense. He made 6 of 9 shots, 1 of 3-pointers, and 1 of 2 free throws in 25 minutes and 51 seconds. He scored 14 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks, with a plus-minus value of +11.

It is no exaggeration to say that Walker Kessler was simply asking for and asking for anything in the Trail Blazers penalty area today. Even the Trail Blazers starting center Klingen had nothing to do with him! So, what about Yang Hansen who is still a rookie?

efficiently scored 14+10+8+2+2 all-around statistics in 25 minutes of playing time. Kessler's preseason debut was absolutely stunning! Seeing his explosive performance, Lakers general manager Pelinka is bound to be even more salivating, because Walker Kesler is the ideal center he has always dreamed of!

According to previous reports from Lakers team reporter Ashish Mathur, league sources revealed that the Los Angeles Lakers will once again try to acquire Jazz center Walker Kessler through a trade in the new season.

According to previous reports by Jazz team reporter Tony Jones, Kessler is expected to enter the restricted free agent market next summer due to the failure to reach an agreement on early contract extension negotiations between Walker Kessler and the Utah Jazz. There is no doubt that the collapse of early contract extension negotiations between Walker Kessler and the Utah Jazz is extremely good news for the Lakers, because it means that their probability of acquiring Kessler in the future will be greatly increased.

Of course, it is not easy for the Los Angeles Lakers to trade for Walker Kesler, because the Jazz's asking price for Kessler is very high! Sources revealed that if the Lakers want to acquire this top power center who is both an alley-oop threat and elite frame-protecting ability, and is highly compatible with Doncic and James' tactics, they may need to send Austin Reeves and multiple first-round picks.

So, do you think Walker Kessler is worth the Lakers' gamble and trade?
