Angry! Exposure of infighting may leave the team! This is the Lakers' starting center

Hayes will hold his own basketball camp, and then the Lakers logo on the promotional map will be P......

Actually, there is no conspiracy theory about this, because Hayes's training camp is a private event, and it is not appropriate to play the Lakers sign, and he is a full free agent this summer offseason, so the two sides are not related at the moment.

After the thick eyebrows were sent to the Mavericks at the trade deadline this year, Hayes became the starting center of the Lakers, and under the feeding of Doncic & James, the Purple and Gold team's career performance reached a new high, playing 33 starts in 56 games in the regular season, averaging 19.5 minutes per game, contributing 6.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1 assist, and shooting 72.2%.

But in the playoffs where he could play the most worthwhile, Hayes suddenly lost Redick's trust, not only lost the starter but also fell out of the rotation, and the G5 was DNP in the life-and-death battle, averaging only 7.8 minutes per game, scoring a paltry 1.8 points and 2 boards.

So recently, according to the Lakers,Hayes' chances of returning to the team for the new season are slim because, as noted above, he is unhappy with the erosion of his role and playing time during the playoffs, which affects the value of his contract year.

It means that Hayes will most likely not renew his contract with the Lakers this offseason, and the Lakers may not be willing to renew his contract.

The Lakers will be actively looking to strengthen the interior position in the trade market this summer, with the Mavericks' Gafford and the Nets' Claxton both being favorites. Gafford is the most favored, this guy has not only experienced the test of the high-end game of the Finals, but most importantly, he has a wonderful chemistry with Doncic.

In the regular season this season, Gafford averaged 12.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.8 blocks in 21.5 minutes per game, shooting 70.2% from the field.

This year's playoffs stopped in the first round, proving that the Lakers, who do not have a strong center, are destined to not go far, let alone hit the championship, even if the team is full of superstars inside and outside!
