The Lakers center doesn t have to worry about! Dong Zhan is expected to join forces with Capela, and he may be able to replicate the 20-year Warcraft counterattack

Although the team has limited space, the Lakers are becoming more and more confident about introducing high-quality inside players in the offseason. The reason is very simple. This year's offseason is expected to have many centers entering the free market or put on the shelves. The Lakers face much less competition and there will be more centers to choose. Lopez on the Bucks is likely to leave the team, and the Jazz have also put Kessler on the shelves, as well as Clarkston of the Nets and Reed of the Timberwolves. Of course, besides Lopez, it is not difficult for the Lakers to get others, but because these inside players are likely to trigger a snatch, the Lakers can make profits in chaos and successfully pick up bargains in corners where others don't pay attention. At present, the Lakers are very hopeful to sign center Capela.

Today, the famous beauty journal Evan Sidery posted a post to discuss Capela's future, writing: "Capela will leave the Hawks as a free agent. At this stage of his career, Capela is unlikely to become a starter, and he will be given priority to the teams that need to replace big men." This season, Capela has played a total of 55 games, starting 41 games, averaging 21.4 minutes per game, and only scored 8.9 points and 8.5 rebounds. The Hawks who are preparing to rebuild are not willing to stay Capela, and Capela also knows that it will be difficult for him to win a big contract now, so his needs for his next role are just a substitute center, which is exactly the advantage of the Lakers, because the Lakers can not only give Capela a huge exposure that needs to re-prove himself, but can even give him a starting center position, which is something other teams may not provide, and it is also an opportunity that Capela may not be able to refuse.

In fact, the collaboration between the Lakers and Capela will be perfect for each need. The Lakers lack insiders are well known, Lakers reporter Anthony F. Irwin also wrote a special article about the Lakers' urgent need to strengthen the center. He wrote: "Discussion market seems to be the only viable way for the Lakers to get a starting center due to salary and other reasons, and the team's internal sources once again said they are ready to go this path. But there is still a disagreement within whether they should use the only means they can offer free agents higher than the base salary contract to increase their investment in the center position. League sources expect that the free agent market will remain fierce this summer, but the situation is not bad enough to allow the Lakers to sign Adams, let alone Turner or Reed. The Lakers may be able to It's enough to sign Capela with their special deal. Capela is considered to be available at a salary of $5.7 million, so he is expected to occupy a very high position on the Lakers' signing list. "

As the reporter said, Capela seems to be the best center that the Lakers can get at the lowest price. Although he is in poor form this season, he is only 31 years old after all. After partnering with Harden, Capela can become the top cake king in the NBA. With the two top passers, James and Doncic, Capela has a lot of hope to revive the second spring of his career. Personally, I believe that if Capela joins the Lakers, he will even have the chance to replicate Howard's counterattack path in 2020. In 2019, Howard once fell to no team, and after many interviews, he got a basic salary contract with the Lakers. Finally, with his outstanding performance and good attitude, he not only won the championship in the season, but also completed a counterattack, and then obtained a contract from the 76ers.

It can be said that the Lakers and Howard achieved mutual success in 2020. The Lakers signed Howard to enhance their strength in the inside. When they successfully won the championship in the season, Howard relied on the huge exposure of the Lakers to prove himself to the outside world again, thus gaining honors and continuing his career. Capela's current situation is similar to Howard back then, and urgently needs a good enough opportunity to prove himself again. Therefore, no matter how you look at it, the Lakers will be his best choice, especially if the Lakers can really give Capela the starting center, I really can't think of him having a reason to refuse.
