On June 14, the NBA Finals G4 started, and three major trading trends came from off-court overnight. Among them, Westbrook chose to jump out of the player option and test the free market, and it is very likely to leave the Nuggets; the Lakers' free market is very active, and the primary goal is to strengthen the inside, Capela has become the most likely target; Durant's trading has entered a white-hot, and the Rockets have become his ideal next home.
According to famous reporter Stein, Westbrook rejected the player option and became a complete free agent. Westbrook holds a $3.5 million player option this summer, and now he chooses to refuse to execute, which means he will try the free market. Westbrook joined the Nuggets last summer and made good contributions, averaging 13.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.4 steals per game in the regular season. Previously, European giants offered him a offer, but he did not choose to accept it and would continue to choose to play in the NBA.
The Lakers are very active in the offseason, and their primary goal is to strengthen the inside. Lakers reporter Jovan Buha believes that Capela is the most suitable candidate. Capela will become a full free agent this summer. The Hawks will basically not choose to renew his contract because he has lost the starting position and Okonwu has become the team's starting position. In this season, Capela averaged 8.9 points and 8.5 rebounds per game, which is still good as a substitute. The transaction of
Durant has entered a white-hot heat and is expected to be completed within next week. The Suns want to end quickly so that they can better reorganize the lineup. It is reported that some competing teams have been eliminated, and the Rockets, Timberwolves and Heat have become the most likely next players, and are actively negotiating with the Suns. On the other hand, the Spurs refused to give the second pick, which also made the transaction fail. And the Rockets have gradually taken the initiative in the next home that is most likely.
It is reported that Uduka intends to cooperate with Durant again, and the two sides have previously cooperated with the Nets. The Rockets have become Durant's ideal next home, and at the same time they can provide high-quality returns to the Suns, holding the Suns' own first-round pick in their hands, and providing young players. The Rockets need such a final player. Many times, no one stood up to score in the final quarter. This season, Durant averaged 26.6 points, 6 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game, and is still an elite scorer in the league.
