Lakers official Twitter update, the official announced the re-signing of guard Quinn Cook. According to sources, Cook had a contract with an annual salary of $3 million, but before that, the Lakers fired him with a guaranteed salary of $654.38+$00,000. Now the Lakers re-signed Cook with a contract of $654.38 +0.62 million, so in fact Cook can still get $2.62 million, which is similar to the original contract, but it takes up the space of the Lakers of $ 654.38+0.62 million. I have to say, the Lakers really played beautifully. Re-sign Cook and Dudley! Howard is eager for the Lakers to give him one of these two contracts. However, judging from the performance of last season, it is still difficult for Cook to get any playing opportunities in the new season. In addition, the Lakers and Dudley renewed their contract of 2.6 million yuan, and they are likely to become the Lakers' water dispenser administrators next season. The Lakers signed them more because of their kindness than because of their fighting capacity. Anyway, they can't sign any excellent role players now, so they simply re-sign the old players from last season, which avoids the running-in between new players and reduces the risk of locker room conflict as much as possible.

However, because of this, many people are more and more sorry that the Lakers let Howard go. It can be said that Howard is far more important to the Lakers than Cook and Dudley. It makes more sense for both the Lakers and Howard to sign contracts. In addition, Howard and the 76ers just signed a one-year contract of 2.6 million, and the Lakers have a good chance to keep him. Let's just say Howard is really in a hurry. He was selected as the best center in the nba for six times and the best defensive team for five times. However, Howard had back surgery during the offseason. Looking back now, he was not fully prepared at 12! However, he recovered to average 17 points 12 rebounds and was selected as the best third team in the nba. The Lakers also became the hottest team in the league in the second half of the season. However, due to Kobe's injury and absence, they suffered heavy losses in the playoffs and were swept by the Spurs in the first round.

Defend key players next season! There are three reasons why the Lakers want to re-sign Howard. The final humiliation occurred in the offseason. Howard broke his previous promise and chose not to renew his contract with the Lakers. It is worth mentioning that in his heyday, no star has left the NBA super team. Mitch Kupchak, then general manager, even posted a billboard asking Dwight to stay. Fans think this is an embarrassing act of despair. In the next six seasons, Howard played for four different teams and began to decline from the elite teams in the NBA, and his reputation was also affected. Due to injury, he played only nine games for Washington in the 20 18- 19 season.

No team chased him in the offseason last year. Howard explained how he moved from the Lakers to the 76ers. Howard said: "I have never received an offer from the Lakers. After 76 people contacted me, I talked to Doug (Rivers) and he told me that he wanted me. I am very excited. Over the years, I have been paying attention to the 76 people and have had a contest with them. I always feel that they have the potential to be the best team. " Howard said he chose to join the 76ers because he didn't receive an invitation from the Lakers. Considering that he mistakenly thought that the Lakers had renewed their contract and was excited to celebrate on social media, Howard 100% was willing to stay with the Lakers.
