In this year's draft, the Lakers can still use the 28th overall pick to pick a young player to strengthen the team's lineup. However, for the current Lakers, in order to continue to maintain a good enough title for next season, most fans believe that the Lakers would better use the 28th overall pick in the 2020 first-round draft to promote a high-quality veteran player. transaction. In a recent article, "Beachstand" reporter Greg Swartz pointed out that the Lakers should have three potential trading targets in the 2020 offseason.
This includes Derrick Rose in the backcourt of the Pistons, JJ Redick in the backcourt of the Pelicans and Miles Turner of the Pacers. Among all these players, Rose is undoubtedly a player who has been frequently associated with the Lakers’ rumors in recent times. Even as early as the trade deadline in February 2020, there have been rumors that the Lakers want to let this Former regular season MVP players join the team lineup.
Although the Lakers can successfully win the Larry O'Brien trophy last season, promoting the deal involving Rose will still have a lot of meaning for the Lakers. As the US media pointed out, getting Derrick Rose from the Pistons can immediately solve the Lakers' needs for another shooter player and organizer. This is undoubtedly a choice that can solve LeBron James' burden.
"Experienced point guard Derrick Rose joining the Lakers and giving the Pistons the 28th pick will be a meaningful move for both sides. This will allow the Lakers to have new scorers and organizers, and Rose has 46. A player with playoff experience. Getting Rose means more rest time for James. He is a player who can contribute 20 points to the Lakers bench in any game, which is completely more than a rookie player. Contributions."
At the same time, JJ Redick is also a very interesting goal for the Lakers. Although he is no longer a player at his peak, he will still be one of the best three-point shooters in the league. Last season, JJ Redick had 15.3 points, 45% field goal percentage and 45% three-point shooting percentage. If James and Davis have a catch-and-shoot player of this level next to them, this will undoubtedly give the Lakers a qualitative improvement on the offensive end.
As for Miles Turner, this will also be an obvious upgrade option for the Lakers inside. Because Turner is a younger center player than McGee and Howard, he is also a player with excellent frame protection ability, as well as Good three-point shooting percentage.
Of course, it is difficult for the Lakers to get a player like Miles Turner with the 28th overall pick. The US media Greg Swartz suggested that the Lakers need to send the Pacers including Kyle Kuzma and Dan. The deal for Ni Green and the 28th overall pick.
For such a plan, if the Pacers hope to put Turner on the shelves, the rewards for Kuzma, Green and the 28th overall pick are not bad, of course, the Lakers are the most beneficial.
