Mawei is still interested in going on the shelves again! Simulated three-party transactions: Mawei + Gafford + Washington

On June 16, Forbes reporter Evan Steeley reported that the Charlotte Hornets are a team in asset collection mode. They received a trading offer about Mawei in February. If they receive similar offers this summer, the Hornets are willing to send Mawei away. Marvel is eligible for a complete early renewal this summer, but he has serious doubts about his future in Charlotte.

The Lakers/Hornets' trade in February this year was that the Lakers gave Kneckett + Reddish + 2031 unprotected first round + 2030 first round swap rights to Ma Wei. (The transaction value of Mawei is actually quite good)

Laker Central revealed that the Lakers' goal this summer is to introduce a No. 5 position with a low salary and a starter, Kessler is 4.87 million, and Mawei is 6.27 million. These two are both the Lakers' favorites.

Lake Media also simulated a set of three-party transactions - Lakers, Mavericks, and Hornets. This three-party transaction is considered a win, because the Lakers have also changed to Mawei, Garford, and PJ-Washington!

Hornets get: Hardy, Kneckett, Williams, the second round of the 2030 Mavericks, the Lakers' first round pick in 2031, the Lakers' first round swap rights in 2030;

Lakes get: Washington, Gafford, Marwit;

Maverick gets: Reeves, Vanderbilt;

Marvel averaging 26.5 minutes this season, scoring 15.2 points, 10.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 0.73 steals and 1.23 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 60.4%. His tonnage, size, and ending ability at the basket are what the Lakers need most today.

If you can still get Gaffer and Washington, then the Lakers really have to take off directly, because Gaffer is even more suitable for the Lakers' starting center than Marvel, because Gaffer and Doncic have already partnered, Marvel can also play in the substitute No. 5 position, and the Lakers' starting can be changed to Doncic, Washington, James, Hachimura, Gaffer/Mawi.
