Not available to assist Doncic! The former Guangdong striker was suddenly seriously injured and forced to leave the game early

The main goal of the Los Angeles Lakers this summer is to complete an early contract renewal with Doncic, and build a team around Doncic on this basis. What Doncic needs is more inside players who can protect the basket, as well as forwards with excellent running and jumping skills, which can provide good defense and three-point shooting. In fact, the Lakers have let Finney Smith go this summer and introduced players such as Laravia and Ayton, but they are still looking for more role players.

In this year's NBA Summer League, the Lakers seem to have found this person, he is Bazley. Bazley was the first round pick in 2019, and he was selected by the Oklahoma City Thunder with the 23rd pick in the first round at the NBA Draft that year. However, Bazley's NBA career was not smooth. He went to China to play last season and competed in the CBA league for the Guangdong Men's Basketball Team.

This summer, Bazley won a seat in the Lakers Summer League team, and his performance was remarkable. At the beginning, Bazley was just a substitute for the Lakers Summer United, but the more they played, the better. In the California Classic, Bazley completed a hit-and-out game against the San Antonio Spurs, helping the Lakers win 89-88.

When he arrived in Las Vegas, Bazley continued to play in the NBA Summer League for the Lakers. At this time, he was already the starter and the more he played, the better. However, in the first half of yesterday's game against the Boston Celtics, Bazley, who had already scored 8 points efficiently, was suddenly injured and could not stand up by his own strength. He had to go into a wheelchair and withdraw.

In this way, Bazley's situation may not be good. He was originally very close to getting a basic salary contract from the Lakers, but now he is not expected to be able to sign. Bazley's story is indeed a pity, he is a little bit away from assisting Doncic.
