Beijing time on November 13, news, earlier this week, reporter Brian Windhorst reported that Kyle Kuzma and his team are seeking to sign a "substantial" contract extension with the Lakers because he is eligible Get a renewal contract. There are also media reports that several teams in the league have expressed interest in trading Kuzma, including the Spurs. Recently, ESPN reporter Ramona Shelburne talked about Kuzma's trading rumors in a podcast.
"I know that there have been trade negotiations about Kuzma, just to test his market value. I also think the Lakers are willing to renew his contract, and he is willing to extend the contract here. The question is how big the contract is and how long it lasts. Time, and what is his role?" Ramona Shelburne said. The reporter
talked thoroughly about the current situation of Kuzma, which means that Kuzma needs to recognize his position. What kind of state does he want to achieve, and whether his talent and strength can support his inner thoughts. To put it plainly, Kuzma wants to spread his wings, want to start, and become an All-Star player. But you really left the Lakers, can you use your current strength to stand up to other teams, and do those teams that want him give him the tactical status that the Lakers want. If you choose to leave, you must be able to start, and give a lot of players to support his inner thoughts, and of course the big contract he wants. The problem is that he has to consider whether he can get these.
's current position in the Lakers has gradually become clear, that is, the position of the sixth man. Of course, if he can get rid of his weaknesses and continue to improve his defense, he also has a chance to start. But can he play that kind of performance, or whether he will try to improve his strength even higher. But from the current situation of the past two years, this player has not invested a lot of energy in the offseason every year, and his potential seems to have reached a bottleneck period.
So the Lakers are also very cautious about his contract extension, like the Lakers are now a very tight salary team. It is impossible to give him a big contract for a player who has obvious flaws, but relies on the overall strength of the team to achieve a certain level of data. So now Kuzma is very contradictory. If he goes to another team without someone like Zhan Mei to give him space, it is difficult to say what he can achieve, but if he stays with the Lakers, his contract annual salary ceiling is estimated to be 1200- About 15 million, no amount of money to the Lakers will be recognized, and there is not such a big room to give him too much money. So for the Kuzma Lakers, now is to give him the opportunity to go to the free market to inquire, and then trade you away if there is something suitable, and accept the contract offered by the Lakers honestly and play well.
