Live broadcast bar, April 22 recently, “bleachers Sports” has taken stock of 5 players under the age of 25 who need to develop in a different environment.
Barrett (Knicks)
Last summer, Barrett and Knicks signed an early renewal contract of 4 years and 0.107 billion dollars. If the bonus is not likely to be received, the total amount of the contract will reach 0.12 billion.
Brunson’s high salary joining and Randle’s return to the best team level not only weakened the importance of Barrett for a long time in the future, but also reduced his development space. More holding is the best for him, but he has never got such an opportunity in this team aiming at winning at the present. His ability to end around RIM is still lower than the league average, and his emergency jump shot is still not convincing enough.
If Barrett can fulfill his talent and become an excellent 3D attack line, it is a better choice for Knicks and himself to continue cooperation. But in fact, he is heading for the opposite of this matter. His defense has slipped this season. Then there is his shooting. Since February 1st, his three-point shooting rate of vacant space is only 27%.
With players such as Brunson, Randle and quikley, Knicks will not choose to give sufficient time and opportunities for Barrett to grow, therefore, it is a better choice for Barrett to develop his offensive ability in other places.
Isaiah Jackson (Walkers)
After entering the second NBA season, Jackson’s games played and average playing time increased. However, when Miles Turner was healthy, his position in the team was still somewhat chaotic. It is not appropriate for him to play number 4, and even playing substitute in number 5, he faces the competition between Jay Smith and Tess.
Pacers have established the idea of building teams around Halliburton. At present, the team has enough salary space. Considering the team’s lineup structure, their next move is likely to be carried out around the front court of the transformation. This will make Jackson’s future more uncertain.
Little Kira-Lewis (Pelican)
Lewis spent most of this season in recuperation, and his playing time was very small after his recovery from injury. He played a total of 25 games this season, and only 5 games played more than 15 minutes.
Lewis can renew his contract with Pelican in advance this summer, but it is very difficult to happen at present.
Cameron-Thomas (basketable Nets)
Thomas is only 21 years old and has cut 40 + four times this season. This scoring ability is rare among players of the same age. Before the start of the season, only 10 players unlocked a single season at least four times before the age of 22+40: Anthony, Rick Barry, East chip, Durant, Edwards, James, Jordan, mcGrady, O’Neal and Trey young.
However, this season Thomas is hardly in the regular rotation lineup of basketable nets. The most stable stage of his playing time is Durant’s injury and the turbulent period of the team before the trade deadline.
When Durant and Owen were still in the team, Thomas had limited opportunities. But after Du ou left the team, he still had few opportunities.
Zairian Williams (Grizzly Bear)
Williams started in many games last season, playing 62 games, 31 of which were the first. He served as a substitute in the playoffs, but he was still a member of the rotation team, which was very important to a Cainiao and very beneficial to his growth.
His second NBA season was a completely different story.
Because of the injury to his right knee, Williams missed the beginning of the season. After returning from injury, he struggled and finally fell out of the team’s rotation lineup. He spent most of this season in Memphis, a Development League team affiliated to grizzly bear.
Even now, more than forecourt player grizzlies have been injured and Morant has suffered injuries. Williams is still not in the team’s playoff plan. And you really can’t blame the coaching staff for this. The things that Williams Cainiao showed during the season, such as emergency jump shot, defensive toughness and bottom corner three points, almost all disappeared.
The attack line of the grizzly bear has not reached the point of being overcrowded, but it is not easy for Williams to re-enter the rotation lineup. The arrival of Kennard strengthened the flank position of the team. Bain was rising. In the 4th position, coach Jenkins preferred to use Ardahan horses, Roddy, Tilman and Clark.
Dillon Brooks’s contract expires this summer and leaves the team Yogueta. The team will be vacant, but this cannot guarantee that Williams will be reused again. Grizzly bears are in the window of competition. At this stage, they are more likely to solve the problem of attack through trading rather than internal cultivation.
