洛杉矶湖人队总经理罗布·佩林卡透露,湖人队将在2019-20赛季余下的时间里签下一名自由球员,取代埃弗里·布拉德利。
虽然佩林卡不愿透露任何名字,但人们普遍认为这是JR史密斯:

上周,布拉德利说他将选择退出本赛季在奥兰多的比赛,理由是他的家庭原因:
作为对我的湖人队友和整个组织的忠诚,我最终还是为我的家人打球。布拉德利在接受ESPN采访时说:“所以,在这样一个时刻,我无法想象做出任何可能会把我的家人的健康和幸福置于最小风险的决定。”。正如承诺的那样,我将利用这段时间专注于项目的形成,以帮助加强我的社区
29岁的布拉德利本可以成为湖人在奥兰多的首发后卫之一,多亏了他精锐的外线防守,尤其是控球后卫。在中场休息之前,布拉德利每场比赛24.2分钟平均拿下8.6分,三分命中率为36.4%。
据报道,史密斯已经与湖人队达成协议,将在迪斯尼世界“泡泡”中加盟湖人队(49胜14负)。这位34岁的球员上一次在NBA打球是在2018年秋季,当时他只为克利夫兰骑士队打了11场比赛。
这位前“年度第六人”得主除了他们的位置之外并没有复制布拉德利的比赛,但理论上他是市场上最好的三分投手之一。另外,史密斯已经和勒布朗·詹姆斯一起完成了四次总冠军任务,连续四次出现在NBA总决赛中,并在2016年克利夫兰夺冠。

Lakers set to sign JR Smith as Avery Bradley’s replacement Wednesday
原文:
Los Angeles Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka revealed the team will sign a free agent for the rest of the 2019-20 season to take the place of Avery Bradley on Wednesday.
While Pelinka wouldn’t name any names, it’s widely expected to be JR Smith:

Last week, Bradley said he will opt out of the season’s restart in Orlando, citing family reasons for his decision:
âAs committed to my Lakers teammates and the organization as I am, I ultimately play basketball for my family. And so, at a time like this, I canât imagine making any decision that might put my familyâs health and well-being at even the slightest risk,â Bradley told ESPN. âAs promised also, I will use this time away to focus on the formation of projects to help strengthen my communities.â
The 29-year old Bradley would have been one of the Lakers’ starting guards in Orlando, thanks to his elite perimeter defense, especially on point guards. Before the hiatus, Bradley was averaging 8.6 points in 24.2 minutes per game while hitting 36.4 percent of his 3-point attempts.
Smith reportedly has a deal in place to join the top-seeded Lakers (49-14) in the Disney World “bubble.” The 34-year-old last played in the NBA in the fall of 2018, when he played just 11 games for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The former Sixth Man of the Year winner doesn’t replicate Bradley’s game besides their position, but he was theoretically one of the best 3-point shooters available on the market. Plus, Smith has been on four championship quests alongside LeBron James, making four straight NBA Finals appearances and winning the 2016 title in Cleveland.
