In the NBA world, the buyout market is like that discount season that everyone is looking forward to, and the Lakers and 76ers have made a quick move, as if they were avid customers snapping up that last sale item. Now, the rest of the teams are watching to see if they can pick up the treasure from this mid-year sale as well. Let's talk about the resurgence of the NBA buyout market, the Lakers and 76ers have taken steps, so who will be the next lucky person to continue to pick up leaks in this player supermarket?
Talking about the Lakers and the 76ers, these two teams move fast and are determined, as if they rushed in on the first day of the supermarket sale and grabbed the last two steaks that everyone was targeting. Spencer Dinwiddie and Kyle Lowry, the two veterans signed by them, were like saying, "We're not just going to make the playoffs, we're going to go for a championship!""This determination has forced other teams to re-evaluate their tactical boards.
So, in this resurgence of the buyout market, which of our players may become sought-after?Let's take a look at the hot candidates that might be on the line.
Speaking of Andre Drummond, the 30-year-old center is rumored to be likely to join the Lakers and join forces with LeBron James and Anthony Davis again. Drummond's rebounding ability and interior defense are literally made for the playoffs. Imagine that if he does join the Lakers, the Lakers' interior defense will be indestructible, and the opponent wants to break through this defense, which is tantamount to shaking the tree.
The second is Joe Harris, the 32-year-old three-point shooter. While his salary is slightly higher, his three-point shooting percentage is enough to tempt any team. The problem is that Harris's salary goes beyond the non-taxpayer middle class exception (MLE) limit, which makes his market a little narrower. However, Harris is still a good option for teams that need to improve their firepower from the outside.
Finally, we can't forget P.J. Tucker. The veteran may not have played much playing time with the Clippers, but his defensive and three-point ability is still worth competing for. Tucker said he's eager to travel to a place where he is really needed, which means there will be quite a few teams reaching out to him once he's bought out.
In this buyout market, every team is looking for key pieces that can take themselves to the next level. The Lakers and 76ers have already made a move, and the other teams are still waiting to see. But remember, the buyout market is like an open-rule auction, and hesitating will only make you miss out on opportunities.
The resurgence of the NBA buyout market will undoubtedly bring more variables and highlights to this season. Fans, which team do you think will be the next lucky one to pick up the slack? Which player will bring a turnaround to his new club? In this buyout market full of opportunities and challenges, let's wait and see who can emerge as the final winner.
