Gasol: The Lakers still have a chance, players should grasp the present and leave the future to the management

September 23rd News In the outside world, as the new season approaches, there are still several major events hanging on the Lakers - the most important ones are LeBron James and Austin Reeves, who are likely to become free agents next summer.

However, Lakers' celebrity Paul Gasol disagrees with this.

Earlier, when he participated in ESPN's "NBA Today" program, he said that everyone should pay more attention to the present, rather than worrying about what will happen after next season.

"What we know is what we can see now, right? We know that they have this lineup now, they must focus on this season and grasp the present. They have the opportunity, they have brought in excellent players, such as DeAndre Aiton, a big man who is eager to prove himself, and he will become an excellent cooperation point for LeBron and Doncic. Therefore, the team must focus on the present and leave the future for management to consider."

well-known sports reporter Brian Windhorst pointed out that after the end of this season, as many as eight players in the Lakers will become free agents, and it is unknown what the team's lineup will look like in 12 months.
