Team records predict changes in the Lakers lineup, with at least three of the four players going, and two playoff rotations are in the list

I believe that after losing to the Timberwolves and being beaten to the first round, Lakers fans should have a clearer understanding of their home team. If Luca Doncic and LeBron James are bound to continue to stay in the team, then the situation of other players seems to be unresolved, and no one seems to be a non-sale product.

Jowan Buha, as a reporter with the team, predicted the possible lineup changes in the Lakers during the offseason. Simply put, the following four players will be at least three, with Hachimura and Gaibu Vincent being in the two playoffs. In addition, Dalton Kneckett and Maxi Cleber are also considered to have been cleaned.

In fact, Hachimura Shizuo performed absolutely well. He averaged 14.8 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1 assist per game in the playoffs, and basically reached the level of 180 clubs, of which the three-point shooting percentage of 48.4% is even more exaggerated. However, if Austin Reeves is not dealt with in the Lakers, then if the Lakers want to adjust their lineup, they can only start from Hachimura Shizuo. Considering that his value is at its highest point and his own defense is indeed average, the Lakers may endure the pain of giving up.

Geb Vincent has joined the team for two years, and his reputation seems completely different. He played 11 times in total last season, and his overall performance is also a mess. But this season, Gaibu Vincent is definitely considered a qualified rotation. Although the data is not very outstanding, the outside projection and defense have provided great help to the Lakers. Problem Gabb-Vincent is a high salary and is a small guard with a single function, so the possibility of being cleaned is definitely not low. There is actually not much to say about the remaining two players. Dalton Kneckett's performance at the beginning of the season was eye-catching, but there were slightly ups and downs afterwards. If Mark Williams had not been returned, he would have been a Hornets player. After Dalton Kneckett returned to the Lakers, he actually performed well several times, but he was abandoned directly in the playoffs. It seems that even if he changed the head coach, the Lakers still don’t trust young players so much. It’s better to send him away earlier, which will not only allow himself to gain immediate combat power, but also have more room for play when the young players go to their new club.

As for Maxi Kleber, he was originally a dowry player with Luca Doncic. In the regular season, Maxi Kleber recovered due to injury and did not play for the Lakers at all. Although Maxi Kleber made a comeback in the playoffs, it was basically useless. Since he was about to enter the contract year, it would be easier to deal with him.
