Nothing is gone! The Lakers snatch Ayton and Horford, Curry is destined to lack center

7:02pm, 3 July 2025Basketball

On July 3, according to ESPN's famous reporter Shams, Ayton signed the Lakers for 16.6 million in two years. At the same time, the Lakers have provided Horford with a biennial special case of 5 million.

If the Lakers snatched Horford again, the Warriors have been working in vain for another year. This year, there are as many as 8 high-quality centers in the free market, including Capela, Lopez, Turner, Ayton, Horford, Connett, Sharp, and Portis. As a result, none of them may be able to make any of them!

Warriors General Manager, what are you busy with? There are two second round picks in the 2025 draft, and they chose a defender and forward line. The free market let go of 10 years of meritorious veteran Rooney. He thought he strengthened the center with a handful, but the result...

Old Liu believes that the Warriors management must have had contact with many potential center candidates, but the latter did not choose the Warriors in the end. The biggest reason is: Will Cole use the center?

In addition, the Warriors probably did not place the highest level in strengthening the center and were unwilling to poach people with high salaries, otherwise they would have to spend money to get Miles Tyne.

Their salary range for candidates is estimated to be in the range of 5-8 million, and with the influence of Cole's five-small system, there are very few people who can come.

Curry's contract has 2 years left, so there is really no time left.

Maybe his destiny is destined to be short of center, so Zhu Meng Green will continue to bear it.

Lao Liu finally suggested that if possible, use Kuminga to exchange for Bulls Vucevic. What else can I do?
