Hachimura waits for 2 for 1! The Lakers get the elongated version of Reeves? This deal is a good result for the former

25 playoffs, Reeves averaged 14.6 shots per game. In terms of efficiency, 0.214 points/round.

For comparison:

1, Derek White 0.259 points/round;

2, Evan Mobley 0.260 points/round;

3, Jaylen Williams 0.282 points/round.

Comparison of data, Reeves' performance in the playoffs was not as good as the third leader.

From this perspective, it is not difficult to understand why there is news that the Lakers are going to trade the former. Of course, this has a lot to do with Reeves' inevitable breaking out of the contract tomorrow summer.

is still related to Reeves.

In the regular season, 51.2% of the shooting came from outside the three-point line and the shooting rate was 37.7%.

As a comparison:

1, Curry's three-pointer rate was 39.7%;

2, Edwards 39.5%;

3, Lillard 37.6%;

4, Taylor Herro 37.5%.

From this perspective, Reeves has an elite level of outside finishing ability. In addition, it also has good investment ending ability.

In terms of data, 330 shots were formed with a shooting rate of 51.8%.

As a comparison:

1, Jaylen Brown made 379 shots with 797 breakthroughs, with a shooting rate of 51.7%;

2, Halliburton made 271 shots with 58.3%;

3, Gidey made 759 breakthroughs, with a shooting rate of 271 shots with 49.1%.

In summary, Reeves also has good ability to hold the investment while shooting from outside. From another perspective, it is not impossible to "win" the All-Stars if you give enough opportunities to give them a good chance.

Speaking of this, given that the Pelicans' "supermarket" suddenly opened. US media "Open-Air Stand" recommends that the Lakers and Pelicans make a 2-for-1 deal. Specifically, the Lakers sent Hachimura Shizuo and Kneckett got Troy Murphy.

Let's make a simple comparison between Murphy and Reeves:

3-point ending,

1, Murphy made 361 shots and 158 shots, with a three-point rate of 36.1%;

2, Reeves made 531 shots and 200 shots, with a three-point rate of 37.7%;

1, Murphy broke through 489 times, with a shooting rate of 232 shots, with a shooting rate of 55.4%;

2, Reeves made 330 shots, with a shooting rate of 51.8% under 775 breakthroughs.

Considering that Murphy is a full-size forward, he can be clearly defined as an elongated version of Reeves. I mean, the two of them have similar characteristics on the offensive end and their efficiency is not much different. To put it more, Murphy has the defensive ability that Reeves does not have.

On the defensive scene,

1, against Fox for 57 rounds, limiting him to 3 of 13 shots;

2, against DeRozan for 52 rounds, limiting him to 4 of 13 shots;

3, against Booker for 40 rounds, limiting him to 3 of 12 shots.

For this potential 2-for-1 deal, I think the Pelicans are also ideal places for Hachimura and Kneckett (good results).

First, if nothing unexpected happens, the Pelicans will rebuild in the new season. Potential, opportunities to get will be guaranteed. This is particularly important considering that Hachimura Shizuo is an expiring contract and Knector is a rookie. To put it bluntly, the opportunity for stability largely means the stability of the data.

Second, unlike the Lakers, the Pelicans have little exposure, so that the two can play with peace of mind, which invisibly helps to perform well.

Overall, considering the Pelicans' reconstruction, this potential 2-for-1 deal is still very likely to be achieved.
