The Lakers first new player is released! 12 million fat brigades are locked in 32+7, and they missed 107 games in three years

On July 1, NBA fans waited for a big operation all night, but the giant team Lakers signed a person, 12 million yuan for two years and signed a white shooter Laravia from the Kings. Many people have never heard of this name. Indeed, this is not a big-name signing, and at most it is a good addition. After letting DFS go, the Rockets, Nuggets, Clippers and other teams have strengthened, but the Lakers are not in a hurry at all. The only signing is still without any sense of existence.

So, someone wants to ask, is the Lakers' new player Laravia good? What are the characteristics of his interest in? Laravia was actually the first round pick in 2022. He joined the Grizzlies in the No. 19 pick that year. He played for two and a half seasons with the Grizzlies and showed good shooting ability. This is also the main reason why the Grizzlies (the Timberwolves selected, and the Grizzlies) chose him at that time. He is 201cm tall and has an arm span of 207cm. As a white shooter, he plays the role of a high-speed turret in the game, and it is difficult for his opponent to block. In addition, Laravia also has certain organizational skills, which is similar to his teammate Kennard. He has shooting and has a little organizational skills, which is underestimated by everyone. How strong is

Laravia's shot is? In this regard, he is indeed top-notch. His three-point shooting percentage has reached 42.3% in the past season, which is the level of a top scorer. Even in his rookie season, he shot 38.5% of his three-pointers, and his overall career three-point shooting percentage is as high as 39.3%. In terms of shooting, he is absolutely reliable. On April 11 last year, Laravia, who was also playing for the Grizzlies, suddenly broke out in the game against the Cavaliers, making 10 of 18 shots, 8 of 11 three-pointers, 4 of 5 free throws, scoring 32 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 block!

So, as long as you give it a chance, Laravia is still very good at playing. He is only 24 years old this year. In this era of tens of millions of yuan in annual salary, it is completely reasonable to poach a reliable shooter of 12 million yuan in two years. When he comes to the Lakers and plays with James and Doncic, he should get more open shooting opportunities, which will also have a high probability of bringing his shooting ability to the extreme, which will be beneficial to the Lakers and his personal development.

However, Laravia is not without its shortcomings. As a white shooter, Laravia has suffered injuries many times, has a poor physical condition and is prone to injury. He has only played three seasons in his career. He has missed 107 games due to injury, and has an average of 35 games a year. In addition, although Laravia can shoot, his ability to fight is relatively poor and his ability to grasp space is not bad, but when he has defense, his efficiency is greatly reduced. In addition, due to insufficient confrontation, he is also very easy to be targeted on the defensive end. The Lakers have suffered losses in Rivers Jr., and the white defender is really hard to describe the defense, especially in the playoffs, his skills are greatly reduced. I wonder if Laravia will cause Lakers fans to collapse again.
