Revealed! The Lakers, Jazz and Heat are involved in three-party transactions, Kessler will assist Doncic

The Los Angeles Lakers' 2024-25 season came to an abrupt end in a heartbreaking way. The first round series was eliminated 1-4, like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of Lakers fans. The Purple and Gold Army, which was once highly anticipated, failed in the first round, which was disappointing. You should know that this season, the Lakers' total salary is as high as US$350 million, ranking first in the league. They have two superstars, James and Doncic, as well as a group of powerful role players, but the high salary investment has not won the match. The first round of elimination made the Lakers a laughing stock in the entire league. The team's performance will definitely not satisfy the fans. The off-season will inevitably strengthen the roster. In response to this situation, the relevant media have planned a potential trading plan for it. Let's take a look at the specific situation:

‌The Lakers got Andrew Wiggins and Walker Kessler;

For the Lakers, if the team wants to be more competitive next season, they will have to strengthen the roster, so they will get the players. What's wrong? Andrew Wiggins has excellent scoring ability, good defensive skills and excellent athletic ability, averaging 17.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, shooting percentage of 46.3%, three-point shooting percentage of 43%, and free throw shooting percentage of 75.9%. Walker Kessler is the player selected by the Timberwolves in the 22nd pick in the first round in 2022. He is 216CM and weighs 110KG and has excellent physical fitness. The defensive end is centered on the instinct to protect the basket, and has both height, timing prediction and movement agility. He does not rely on violent jumps in blocks, and is especially good at predicting landing points when fighting rebounds, creating secondary offensive opportunities through solid positions. The ability to switch defense is qualified in the center. The basket protection range can cover Doncic's misalignment loopholes when defending against pick-and-roll. It provides body shape capital when fighting against heavy centers. The rebound protection can alleviate the problem of slackness in the Lakers team's position. This season, it averages 11.1 points, 12.2 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks. The rebound ranks third in the league, second in the block, and the shooting percentage is 66.3% in the league. When it comes to the team, it can solve the problems in the inside. Overall, this deal does not suffer any losses to the team.

Heats introduced Gable Vincent and John Collins;

After the Heat sent Butler, the team's record was not ideal, and they also needed to improve their strength through strengthening. So what about the players? First of all, John Collins has the ideal physical condition and physical fitness of a power forward. His excellent bounce and explosive power make him good at grabbing frontcourt rebounds and completing all-time relays, averaging 19.0 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 52.7%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 39.9%. He performed well and could become the core of the team. As for Vincent, he also has good combat power and can improve the depth of the substitute. This deal has greatly improved the team's strength.

Jazz got Li Kaier, Hachimura and Dalton Knector. When the Lakers' first round pick in 2031

Jazz are a team that is bad, and they will definitely not continue to bad next season. So what about this deal? First of all, Li Kaier is technically balanced and can be competent in any position in any tactics, whether offense or defense, and average 5.9 points and 3.4 baskets per game in 16.4 minutes. The data of 2.4 assists, 0.7 steals, and 0.5 blocks were data, with three shooting percentages of 46.9%, 35.7% and 73.8% respectively. Hachimura Shizuo can improve his strength on both offense and defense, scoring 13.1 points, 5 rebounds and 1.4 assists, and the shooting percentage of 3 events was /50.9/41.3/77%. As for Dalton Kneckett, he can also help the team on the offensive end, and also got a first-round pick, which is conducive to the team's rise.
