Jazz player Clarkson said: No objection to returning to the Lakers

June 21 NBA Jazz player Clarkson recently interviewed a podcast column in the United States and talked about the focus of whether he has the opportunity to return to the Lakers in the future: "

Yes, I think I have a full chance to return to the Lakers, and I am not opposed to returning to Los Angeles. My contract with the Jazz is about to expire this offseason. It is not necessary to be surprised if any transactions occur in the NBA, because everything is just business!"

"I used to play for the Lakers and have grown there. Now if I have the opportunity to continue to work with James, It is also a very honorable thing to be able to accompany him to retire in the future. He is the most legendary superstar in the league. His entire career is envious of all players! ”

He played in a total of 37 games in the regular season, only 9 starts and 28 substitutes, averaged 26.1 minutes per game, scored 16.2 points + 3.2 rebounds + 3.7 assists + 0.8 steals + 0.2 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 40.0%, a three-point shooting percentage of 36.0%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 79.0%.
