He was given up by the NBA at the age of 26! A former genius player!

Lithuanian club BC Siauliai officially announced that Redish joins the team.

His contract will reportedly include exit clauses for the 2025-26 season, and if there is a chance in the NBA, Champions League or other top league games, Reddish has the option to leave.

But no matter what, it is already true that 26-year-old Reddish has not been able to get a formal contract in the NBA.

When I saw this news, my first reaction was: back then, the media were so arrogant.

In 2019, Duke University sent three players in the top ten picks alone.

Zion was picked by the Pelicans in the first pick, Barrett went to the Knicks in the third pick, and Reddish was selected by the Hawks in the tenth pick.

People in the martial arts world said that Duke is in his prime.

6 years have passed, and time has given us the answer.

Although Fat Tiger has obtained a big contract, he is still only a "sick tiger".

Next James? Forget it.

A player who can't even control his own weight is unlikely to become a player of that level.

Barrett, known as "Maple Leaf Mamba", has no worse attention in high school than Zion, and even beats Zion in the draft. He is the earliest player to become famous in 2019.

was selected by the Knicks, carrying great expectations, and living in the spotlight.

However, now he has also played basketball in his hometown and became the 8th Canadian player in the history of the Raptors, and is lukewarm.

Redish is even more miserable.

On January 14, 2022, the Eagles sent it to the Knicks. In February 2023, the Knicks sent Redish and a first-round pick to the Trail Blazers in exchange for Josh Hart. In the summer of 2023, he joined the Lakers with a two-year minimum salary.

was also laid off this year, and was directly robbed by the base salary player Goodwin. In the 24-25 season, he played 33 times with the Lakers, started 8 times, averaged 3.2 points, 2 rebounds, 0.7 assists and 1 steal per 17.8 minutes per game, shooting 40.4%, and 27.7% of three-pointers.

Reddish was on the court and the Lakers lost 8.4 points in a 100-game match, the worst in the team.

You should know that Vanderbilt was injured, Finney Smith has not joined yet, and Reddish was once the main striker of the Lakers.

Why didn't you realize your talent? Why didn't you stay in the NBA?

It can be seen from the nickname "Thunder Tenth".

"Human Spin Essence", "Ghost Brother" and "Ice Sagittarius".

What are his advantages? Those so-called genius high school students are inseparable from the trait of good health.

Redish's physical ability is quite popular in the position of the Fighter Swinger. Objectively speaking, his defense during the Lakers was satisfactory.

If the current NBA version was 10 years ago, he is likely to have a job.

However, if you don’t have a stable three-pointer these days, it will be difficult to survive. Reddish's shooting percentage has been at a low level for a long time, around 30%.

In addition, he lacks stable ball control and pass ability, and it is difficult to create opportunities on the offensive end.

Although there is information that he beat everyone in the Lakers one-on-one match, that's two different things from five to five. It can be seen from the official game that his playing style relies on empty cuts and secondary attacks, and lacks independent offensive means.

It is worth mentioning that many coaches have pointed out that Redish's game mentality and on-court concentration are worrying.

I think it is easy to understand this:

He has a big sense of gap. He was used to being a big brother in high school and college.

A man who picks stars in the sky, do you ask him to roll in the mud and grab the ball? His role has not been changed.

From the experience of Gui Ge, we can see the changes in the NBA over the past 10 years.

This is an era of pursuing offensive efficiency.

You are defending well? Without three-pointers, it would be in vain.

So, real 3D players are valuable.
