The new boss is the gods in his debut! The Lakers want to send Kennett + Hachimura to grab the 2018 No. 1 pick

On June 27, in the second round of the 2025 NBA Draft, the Los Angeles Lakers selected forward Adu Tiero from the University of Arkansas with the 36th pick. In fact, the Lakers' primary goal in the second round is center Carlke Brenner, who is 2.16 meters tall. Unfortunately, the Hornets selected him in advance with the 34th pick and "intercepted" the Lakers' favorite player.

It is worth mentioning that the Lakers initially held the second round pick was the No. 55 draw. In order to get a higher pick, they first used the No. 55 draw plus a certain amount of cash to exchange the No. 45 draw from the Bulls. Immediately afterwards, they further operated, using the No. 45 draw with cash, and exchanged the No. 36 draw from the Timberwolves, and finally got the chance to choose Tierro with the No. 36 draw.

Adu Tierro has long been a well-known defensive player on the court. In his last season in high school, he played for Quak Valley High School, showing an extremely comprehensive and outstanding competitive state. During this season, he averaged 23.3 points per game, snatched 10.3 rebounds, sent 5.9 assists, completed 3.9 steals and 2.3 blocks. This all-around data is amazing. Under his leadership, the team has been in a state of unstoppable development, with an impressive record of 27 wins and 1 loss throughout the season.

What is particularly worthy of writing is that Thiero also had an extremely brave performance. In a certain game, he opened fire and scored 44 points in a single game. This amazing scoring performance successfully set a new record for the highest score in a single game in Quak Valley High School's history, and undoubtedly added a strong mark to his high school basketball career.

However, for Lakers General Manager Pelinka and his management team, the most critical task during the offseason is to strengthen the team's inside strength. In the series against the Minnesota Timberwolves, the team's inside shortcomings were fully exposed. The performance of inside players such as Hayes, Ryan, and Kroko on the court is really unsatisfactory and they have failed to assume the heavy responsibility of defense and offense.

In contrast, Randall, Gobert and Reed of the Timberwolves fully grasped the weaknesses of the Lakers' inside line, performed well in the game, and played landmark data. The Lakers also ended in the first round of the playoffs due to their inside disadvantage. This result undoubtedly disappointed the team and the fans.

According to Shams, a famous NBA reporter, after Yang Hansen was selected by the Trail Blazers, a big news instantly attracted widespread attention from the basketball world - 2018 No. 1 pick Ayton will soon join the Los Angeles Lakers. It is reported that in order to get Ayton, the Lakers will send out two players, Hachimura and Kneckett, and will also gain a future first-round draft pick.

Aiton, this tall player, has always been known for his comprehensive abilities. On the offensive end, he has extraordinary standards, and can easily score in the opponent's penalty area. On the defensive end, he has shown outstanding strength. With his outstanding height and wingspan advantages, he can effectively protect the basket and cause huge trouble for the opponent's offense. If Ayton can successfully land in Los Angeles, it will definitely bring about earth-shaking changes for the Lakers.
