The wing gate will represent the Lakers in the summer league. His performance in the second team is just right?

Previously, the Los Angeles Lakers officially announced the list of players participating in the next NBA summer league, including DaJuan Gordon, a wing player who played for the Lakers' NBA Development League team last season.

Gordon was born in January 2001 and is 24 years old, 193cm tall and weighs 86kg. He was the undraft in the NBA draft last year. In the 2023-24 season, Gordon played for the NCAA team at the University of Texas at Arlington. He played 33 times in total, with averaging 30.7 minutes per game, averaging 12.9 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.3 blocks, and 3 turnovers and 3 fouls. He shot 45.8%, three-point shooting percentage 31.4%, and free throw shooting percentage 75.4%. Gordon's performance is average. He showed a certain scoring ability. His performance on the defensive end is also quite good. However, as a wing player with limited figure, his performance in scoring and passing cannot be considered particularly outstanding. He also has some problems in turnover control. The strength of his team is not particularly strong. It is reasonable for him to eventually become a undrafted candidate.

Gordon held a trial training for the South Bay Lakers before the NBA Development League game last season. His performance seems to have been recognized by the South Bay Lakers uniform group, and he also joined the team. In the NBA Development League regular season last season, Gordon made a total of 50 appearances, averaging 26.2 minutes per game, averaging 10.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1 steal and 0.2 blocks, and 1.7 turnovers and 2.5 fouls. His shooting percentage was 46.6%, a three-point shooting percentage of 30.3%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 72.3%. Gordon performed well last season. He still showed good levels on the defensive end. He was able to provide certain support to the team on the offensive end. He also showed off his characteristics when his playing time was not very stable.

Gordon is also an all-round player with both offense and defense, but his stability in outside shooting on the offensive end is still a little worse. His figure is also shorter as a wing or third-place player, which has also affected his development. I don’t know if Gordon’s ability can make some progress after experiencing an NBA development league field. In the next NBA summer league, what kind of performance can Gordon, who has more experience, perform? Can he become a key figure in the Lakers' roster and take on more responsibilities? If he can perform better, he will also have the opportunity to launch an attack on a training camp contract that includes Exhibit 10?
