The Lakers signed a former Celtic second-round pick. His offensive ability looks quite comprehensive?

The Los Angeles Lakers officially announced that the team has signed forward player Anton Watson and backcourt player Nate Williams Jr. In order to free up places for the signing of the two players, the Lakers cut off the striker Tavion Jones, who had just signed and Eric Dixon, who had signed after this year's draft.

Watson was born in October 2000 and is not yet 25 years old. He is the forward star selected by the Celtics in the 54th pick in the second round in the NBA Draft last year. According to physical test data from the G League Elite Training Camp before the NBA Draft last year, Watson's bare foot height was 201.9cm, his wingspan was 211.3cm, his standing height was 266.7cm, and his weight was 105.9kg. In the NBA regular season last season, Watson played 9 games for the New York Knicks, averaging 2.5 minutes per game, averaging 0.9 points, 0.3 rebounds, 0.2 assists and 0.1 steals, 0.2 turnovers and 0.3 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 44.4% and a three-point shooting percentage of 0%. In the NBA Development League last season, Watson played 37 times for the Celtics' subordinate team, Maine Celtics, with averaging 29.9 minutes per game, averaging 12.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.2 blocks, and 0.2 turnovers and 1.9 fouls. He shot 44.1% from the field, 31.9% from three-point shooting percentage and 65.1% from free throws.

Watson did not get any chance to play at the Celtics, and he was also cut by the team in March this year. After that, the New York Knicks claimed his two-way contract, but after joining the Knicks, he still did not get enough playing time and performance opportunities, and his data was quite bleak. In fact, Watson's performance in the NBA Development League is not very outstanding, and he cannot show his performance at Gonzaga University in the NCAA field, and his advantage in maturity is not reflected.

In the previous NBA Summer League, Watson played 5 times for the Knicks, averaging 16.3 minutes per game, averaging 9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.6 blocks, 0.6 turnovers and 1.6 fouls, shooting percentage of 56.7%, three-point shooting percentage of 41.2%, and free throw shooting percentage of 80%. Watson performed well in the NBA Summer League. He also showed quite good scoring ability and rich offensive methods. He also showed his all-round ability on the offensive end without much playing time. Although Watson should not be able to appear in the NBA for the time being, if he can perform well in the Lakers' subordinate team Nanwan Lakers in the new season in the NBA Development League, he may also become a potential contender for a two-way contract.
