Lakers feel Jaxson Hayes can start alongside Anthony Davis!
The team may have given a hint that it wants to do just that by signing free agent center Jaxson Hayes. Hayes is a springy 6-foot-11, 23-year-old big man who can run the floor, jump high, finish strong and block shots, which is a similar profile to that of JaVale McGee, who started at the 5 during the 2019-20 campaign.
重點來了:The thinking is that a big lineup with Davis at the 4 and a true center at the 5 would make Los Angeles better defensively and on the boards. It would also relieve Davis of the need to eat up lots of minutes guarding someone such as the Denver Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic.
