Live broadcast on July 20 recently, ESPN’s Lakers reporter Dave McMenamin said that the Lakers may make Heiss’ partners appear together in the new season.
McMenamin said: “Since Davis came to the Lakers, he has been emphasizing that he doesn’t like playing number 5, and his body will be destroyed, he likes to have a big player nearby to protect RIM and so on. So in 2020, they won the championship with the help of big players such as Mackey. The Lakers hope to copy the lineup in 2020 to please Davis and make him feel good.”
Then McMenamin continued: “So I won’t be surprised when we see Hays as the starting center in the current season, but this doesn’t mean that you won’t see Davis playing center in the fourth quarter, because this is the moment to win.”
