3:45am, 28 June 2025【Basketball】
When Shams broke the saying "Don't sleep tonight", the outside world thought that there would be big or unexpected transactions, but there was no transaction in the past night. Of course, some operations are achieved. It is really shocking that the Rockets have been revealed to have completed two operations soon. The Lakers and the Heat were exposed to further discussing the bargaining chip issue related to the transaction. Let’s take a look at the specific situation together. NBA: VanVleet renews its contract at a bargain price, Landal is expected to be severed, and Lakers and Heat trades are discussed. After the Rockets completed the Durant transaction, they can be said to have compensated for their biggest shortcomings. Their next focus is VanVleet's stay or leave. Earlier, the Rockets rejected Van Vreet's $44.9 million team option and reached a two-year contract extension with him, but the amount was far beyond expectations. They only used a two-year contract of 50 million to keep Van Vreet with the Rockets. Among them, the 26-27 seasons are the player options.
Van Frett averaged 14.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.6 steals per game, shooting percentage of 37.8% and three-point shooting percentage of 34.5%. He averaged 18.7 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1 steal per game in the playoffs, and his three-point shooting percentage was 43.5%. ESPN data shows that Van Vreet ranked 7th in the league in assists and misses last season, and he has averaged more than 35 minutes of playing time per season in the past six seasons. If you return for renewal at such a price, it can really be said to be a bargain price. After the signing of the
, the Rockets' total salary has been reduced a lot. They can use a full-time middle-class special case of $14.1 million this summer, which can further enhance the strength of the lineup, while allowing the Rockets to have more flexibility in the future, and also allow Van Vreet to enter the free market next summer, where many teams will have more salary space.
In addition, the Rockets will further adjust their inside operations. According to NBA reporter Evan Sidery, the Rockets will soon lay off center Landale to free up $8 million in additional cap space flexibility. His contract for the 25-26 season is insured, with $8 million, and the Rockets must decide whether he will stay or not on June 29. In the end, he was unable to stay with the Rockets, after all, the Rockets are still enough insiders. Last season, Langdale played 42 games for the Rockets, averaging 4.8 points and 3.3 rebounds per game. He only played in one game in the playoffs and scored two points in 5 minutes. As a good substitute center, Landale will attract the strong interest of many teams, of course, the premise is to win a basic salary contract. Which team do you think he will go to?
The last one is a rumor about a deal, both sides are the Lakers and the Heat. According to previous news, the Lakers are inspecting Wiggins and have made a price-question with the Heat, and there is further follow-up news. ClutchPoints' Lakers reporter Anthony F. Irwin reported that several sources revealed that the trading negotiations between the Lakers and the Heat are still continuing, and the discussion on trading chips has come. The Heat hopes to get Hachimura Shizuo and get more balanced wages for expiring contracts.
league sources revealed that the Heat hope to win over Cricket in the deal. Because the Lakers may not want to use their first-round pick before they fill the center vacancy, the Heat may also seek a deal to send Li Kaile away. If the Lakers are unwilling to let Hachimura go, then they are sure that in the transaction about Wiggins, they must take out the first round pick and add this year's No. 55 draw, or future draft swap rights. Of course, for the Lakers, the focus of offseason compensation is still on the inside, which depends on what kind of chips they will give out during Wiggins' operations, and whether there are enough trading chips to strive for inside players who can improve the team's lineup?
The teams will also adjust their mid-lines in the future, including the Celtics, and they are expected to operate in the future. We will wait and see when teams such as the Lakers, Warriors, Clippers, Nuggets, and Bucks can complete the transaction.
