Can the Rockets provide a two-year, $28 million contract for the forward general. Are the Lakers in big trouble?
ESPN's salary expert Bobby Marks talked about rumors about the Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Lakers forward star Dorian Finney-Smith. Marks believes Smith can sign a two-year contract with the Rockets for a total of $28 million. Marks also said that Fred VanVleet's salary cut and renewal gave the Rockets the salary flexibility to use the full middle class special case, and after giving the full middle class special case, the total salary can still be kept no more than the first rich line, but the Rockets need to first cut off Jock Landale, who holds a non-guaranteed contract. Marks also said that the full middle class special case this year is worth about $14.1 million.
In the middle of this season, the Lakers, who had some trouble with the record, completed a deal with the Brooklyn Nets. The Lakers sent poorly-performing backcourt player D 'Angelo Russell to the Nets and got Smith from the Nets. After joining the Lakers, Smith made a total of 43 appearances in the NBA regular season, averaging 28.8 minutes, averaging 7.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.3 blocks. He also had 0.9 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. His shooting percentage was 44.2%, three-point shooting percentage was 39.8%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 71.4%. During the playoffs, Smith played 5 games in total, with averaging 33.9 minutes per game, averaging 6.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.2 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 1 turnover and 3.4 fouls. His shooting percentage was 41.4% and his three-point shooting percentage was 36.8%.
Smith still showed his due level after joining the Lakers. He also played the level of his 3D type forward player very well, and his effect on the court was also quite good. Although Smith is not particularly stable in shooting percentage and three-point shooting percentage on the offensive end, he can at least keep his offensive efficiency at an acceptable level. Smith's role on the defensive end is even more visible to the naked eye. He is definitely a very excellent defender. His personal defense ability is quite outstanding, and he also has outstanding assisting and switching ability. After Smith joined the team, the Lakers' record also improved significantly, and the team eventually entered the playoffs with the third place in the West.
According to previous news, Smith chose the option of not executing the $15.4 million player in his contract next season, and he will also become a full free agent. The Lakers hope to sign Smith back, but it seems that the Rockets can also provide Smith with a competitive offer. I don’t know how the situation will develop after the free market is opened. Will Smith join the Rockets next season, or will he continue to stay with the Lakers?
