The Lakers may continue to upgrade the inside line, and have asked for 6+6 centers, and the glass attributes have become the biggest obstacle.

The Lakers' several signings this summer are mainly in the frontcourt, such as winning Ayton in the buyout market and completing a contract renewal with Hays, which seems to be quite sufficient insiders. However, Ayton and Hachimura Shizuki obviously have obvious flaws, and the substitute lineup is simply average.

So according to media reports, the Lakers may continue to upgrade to the inside, and have asked Trail Blazers center Robert Williams. In theory, he has both offense and defense, and is under 28 years old. As long as Robert Williams stays healthy, he can be regarded as the top inside blue-collar worker in the league. Moreover, he and Ayton are equivalent to two Lakers centers. They originally played for the Trail Blazers, which is also quite interesting.

However, it looks wonderful, but Robert Williams' glass attributes will be the biggest obstacle. Because he has performed well since he entered the league, but Robert Williams has been injured continuously, which also makes people feel very troubled. During his five years in the Celtics, Robert Williams only played at most 61 games in a single season, and at other times his attendance rate exceeded 50%, which was very good. So the Celtics really can't stand it and sent him to the Trail Blazers in the summer of 2023. After all, no matter how capable you are, you are always injured and even need the team's strict protection. No one can stand it.

After Robert Williams joined the Trail Blazers, his attendance rate was even more unpredictable. For example, he averaged 6.8 points and 6.3 rebounds per game in the 23-24 season, but he didn't use it very hard at all. Robert Williams was reimbursed after playing 6 games, and the fans were stunned. In the past 24-25 season, the situation has not changed much. Robert Williams averaged 5.8 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.7 blocks per game, but he only played 20 times in total. Just like the outside world joked, it is obvious that Robert Williams is a player who charges for 2 hours and can only talk for 5 minutes, and it is difficult for anyone to withstand it.

After selecting Yang Hansen, the Trail Blazers were able to buy out Ayton directly. Obviously, the management has no patience for Robert Williams. With Hansen Yang and Donovan Klingen, other inside players will only hinder their growth, so the Trail Blazers will definitely deal with Robert Williams. But due to his terrible attendance rate and injury risks, it is estimated that it will be difficult to sell at high prices, but for the Lakers, who have average operating level and really have no bargaining chips, it may be an opportunity.
