At the time, the Lakers regarded it as better than Caruso! He is only 24 years old, so he is playing in the overseas league now

On September 2, there are still many outstanding players in the free market, such as the familiar Westbrook, Brogdon, Horford, etc. Some of them have reached oral agreements with the team. Some of them have reached verbal agreements, but they have refused. They still have the spirit of contract after reaching the oral agreement. Of course, players are destined to be destined to be without the ball in this offseason. Previously, American reporters analyzed that Westbrook and Simmons may not sign the contract until the start of the regular season.

Westbrook is quite sad and has reached an oral agreement with the Kings. At the beginning, the Kings also said that they would trade to free up the roster as soon as possible to win Westbrook. As a result, it is September now, and there is only one month left before the start of the preseason. In this case, they have not made a free up the roster, and the team is not planning to trade Monk. In this case, I think if there is a suitable team, Westbrook will go, why wait for this unreliable King.

Although Simmons has performed poorly in the past few seasons, he is still valuable like Westbrook. Although he has no shooting and is overused in the playoffs, Simmons has excellent defensive ability, can switch to multiple positions, and has great passing ability. He can serve as the organizer on the bench and drive the team's offense. The Knicks and the Celtics are interested in him, but even if he is signed in the end, it is probably a basic salary contract.

In comparison, Fultz is in a miserable state. He is likely to be unable to return to the NBA. The Kings gave him a chance last season, but his performance was very bad and he still did not shoot. In addition, in the free market, Horton Tucker has been unable to get an NBA contract for a long time, so he now has the idea of ​​finding another way. After all, he is only 24 years old and has no ball to play now. Then his future life still cannot meet the standards he wants. After all, this profession is just for youth.

According to well-known European journalist Andrea, Tucker will leave the NBA and join the Turkish Super League giant Fenerbahcebeco. The two sides have reached an agreement, and it is only a matter of official announcement. It is reported that the two sides have reached a one-year, $1 million contract. Seeing the current Horton Tucker experience, many fans are probably ridiculous about Pelinka's operation. Although this general manager helped the Lakers win the Lakers with Thick Brows and Doncic, he also has a lot of bad operations.

Horton Tucker is the 16th pick in the second round of 2019. After joining the Lakers, he did not get much chance in his rookie season, but he followed the team to win the championship. In the second year of his career, because the team gave up Howard, Danny Green and others, Tucker's playing time increased, and averaged 9 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1 steal per game. Because of the 1.93-meter height, 2.17-meter wingspan, and excellent athletic ability, Pelinka also regards him as the team's future.

In the offseason in 21, Caruso faced a contract renewal. He wanted a four-year average salary of 9 million yuan. At that time, the outside world gave him a bigger contract. He only wanted to stay with the Lakers, so he asked for such a contract. As a result, the Lakers did not give him. They thought Tucker could not only replace him, but also better than him. After replacing the deal, he gave Tucker a three-year contract of 30.78 million yuan, with an average salary of more than 10 million yuan. Caruso had no choice but to come to the Bulls.

Look at such a static talent, which is indeed good. Even if you have such an arm span, you won’t suffer a loss even if you play No. 2. However, the Lakers overlooked an important issue, that is, the ball quotient. Although Tucker’s talent seems to be better than Caruso, this guy has no ball quotient and doesn’t know what to do when. He is targeted in various defensive ends, and he only knows how to play singles when holding the ball on the offensive end, and has no ability to pass the ball at all, and often makes low-level mistakes.

Pelinka realized that he had misread, so he exchanged him for Beverly from the Jazz. The Jazz also planned to train him and gave him enough playing time. This person relied on his talent to help the team score on the bench, but that's all, and it was still not enough to handle the ball. After the Jazz gave up on him, he came to the Bulls. Last season when he joined the Bulls, the team only used him as a substitute rotation.

Tuck averaged 6.5 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.4 assists last season, and his three-point shooting percentage was only 33.6%. He has not made any progress in handling balls and shooting for so many years. Everyone has also seen his future, so no one is interested in the free market. In contrast, Caruso has not only become the top 3D in the league, but also won two championships. Last year, he received a four-year, 81 million contract from the Thunder. Obviously, he and Tucker are no longer at the same level.

Facts have proved that ball maker is a good thing. Ball maker can make up for many talent flaws, which is why many undrafted picks can still succeed. It is probably difficult for Tucker to return to the NBA in the future, and Caruso is probably going to win a big contract. Having said that, what do you want to say about Tucker?
