Buha: If the Lakers quote Kamala in 2 for 1, it may not satisfy the appetite of the Trail Blazers

Recently, NBA reporter Jovan Buha brought a report about Trail Blazers forward Tumani Kamala, the main content is as follows:

1, Kamala's rookie contract has two years left. According to the rules, Kamala is eligible to sign a contract renewal of up to four years and a total salary of US$89.2 million this summer.

Regarding Kamala's stay and do not have any questions, the Trail Blazers management is currently more inclined to trade and asks for two first-round picks.

2, the Lakers are one of the many teams interested in Kamala. In terms of chips, the Lakers can try to use Kneckett + 1 first-round pick to quote Kamala, but Jovan Buha feels that these chips are likely to not satisfy the appetite of the Trail Blazers.

Kamala is 2.03 meters tall and weighs 99 kg. In the previous prediction released by US media The Athletic, Kamala was selected for the best defensive first team.

In the 2024-25 season, Kamala made 78 appearances for the Trail Blazers in the regular season, and averaged 11.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.5 steals per game, shooting percentage of 45.8% and three-point shooting percentage of 37.5%.

Kamala's biggest selling point at present is his 3D attributes. For the Lakers who are eager to introduce defensive resources, Kamala is undoubtedly a high-quality option.
