The backcourt general will be absent for 2-4 weeks, and the Lakers are almost in a situation where no one is available?

According to ESPN authoritative reporter Shams Charania, Los Angeles Lakers backcourt general Gabe Vincent suffered a left ankle injury and is expected to miss 2-4 weeks. Vincent was injured in the previous game against the Sacramento Kings. He left the game early due to injury.

In the NBA regular season last season, Vincent played a total of 72 times in 82 games, averaging 21.2 minutes per game. He averaged 6.4 points, 1.3 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.7 steals, and 0.2 blocks per game. He also had 0.6 turnovers and 2.1 fouls. He shot 40% from the field, 35.3% from the three-point range, and 71.4% from the free throw line. In the playoffs, Vincent played a total of 5 times, averaging 19.8 minutes per game. He averaged 2.8 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 0.2 steals, and 0.4 blocks per game. He also had 0.2 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. He shot 35.7% from the field and 30.8% from the three-point range. Since the start of this season, Vincent has averaged 23.9 minutes per game in the first three games, averaging 3.7 points, 1 rebound, 2.3 assists and 1 steal per game, as well as 0.7 turnovers and 2.3 fouls. He shot 23.1% from the field, 20% from the three-point range, and 100% from the free throw line.

In fact, Vincent's performance this season is very unsatisfactory. His offensive efficiency is very unsatisfactory, his scoring ability has not been used at all, his offensive efficiency is a mess, and his shooting touch from the outside is even more terrible. Not only that, even though he got a lot of playing time, his passing and organizational skills were also not fully utilized, and his impact on the game on the defensive end was also not very high. Vincent started all three games, and except for his early departure against the Kings, which limited his playing time, he played plenty of time in the other two games. Under such circumstances, he can only produce such dismal statistics, which is indeed unsatisfactory, and his influence on the game is indeed too limited.

But the problem is that the Lakers are currently full of injured soldiers. Only eight of the team's 15 players with standard contracts are healthy, and that includes the injury to core player Luka Doncic in the backcourt. With Vincent out for a while, the Lakers may really be facing a situation where no one is available in the backcourt, and Austin Reaves will also need to take on more tasks. Next, we can also see how the Lakers coaching staff will adjust the team's rotation. With severe personnel shortages, will they consider activating Bronny James or Nick Smith Jr., who has a two-way contract?
