The Lakers are going to be back again? I am interested in the second-tier defender. If he is healthy, he will be considered a panacea

The first round of the playoffs was announced, giving everyone a clearer understanding of the current Lakers. Although introducing a reliable starting center is the Lakers' number one task in the offseason, this is not the only problem. The Lakers' overall lineup depth, among all playoff teams, dare not say that they are at the bottom level, and they must be the countdown.

For example, in the backcourt position, except for Luca Doncic and Austin Reeves, Gab Vincent is a little more reliable. The Lakers' offensive ball-holding task is completely focused on those players, and their playing style is also easy to be targeted. According to the report of team reporter Dan Walker, the Lakers management realized this problem and seemed to be back and wanted to sign guard Lonzo Ball to solve this problem. As the second place in 2017, Lonzo Ball was the early template of Jason Kidd, who has outstanding passing and control capabilities, vision and overall view of the court. However, the Lakers have been cultivating rookie abilities in recent years. During his time with the Lakers, Lonzo Ball could only be considered a qualified starter at most. In exchange for "Brother Davis" Anthony Davis, Lonzo Ball's overall performance and data have improved significantly after joining the Pelicans. After

, Lonzo Ball's performance on the court is actually quite stable, whether in the Pelicans or the Bulls. However, the main problem of Lonzo Ball is that her body is too fragile, which is very similar to his third brother, LaMelo Ball, the Hornets' core player. The player's ability is fine, but it is too easy to get injured. Lonzo Ball is even more outrageous in this regard, because he only played 63 games in his highest attendance in his career. Since the 21-22 season, he has been resting for more than two years due to continuous knee surgery and has only played 70 games in four seasons. Many teams may not dare to give Lonzo Ball too big for this reason, and even completed the signing with him.

But Lonzo Ball's past experience also shows that if he can stay healthy, he will be a pirated player in the backcourt. In addition to his excellent organizational skills, Lonzo Ball's outside projection and defense are also top-notch in the same position. Simply put, Lonzo Ball is like Patrick Beverly with stronger organizational skills, the only problem is the glass attributes. Of course, the Lakers also like to go back and forth, especially in the backcourt position. For example, Dennis Schroeder and D'Angelo Russell, they played for the Lakers more than once, and Lonzo Ball seems to be nothing.
