The Los Angeles Lakers landed Japanese forward Rui Hachimura from the Washington Wizards in exchange for Kendrick Nunn and a package of second-round draft picks.
acquired former lottery pick Rui Hachimura from the Washington Wizards on Monday in exchange for Kendrick Nunn and a package of second-round draft picks.
"I just want to be somewhere that wants me as a basketball player," Hachimura told reporters last week. "And I want to be somewhere that likes my game. ... I just want to be somewhere that believes in me and I can be myself. That’s my goal." Los Angeles has hit only 33.7% of its 3-pointers this season, ranking near the bottom of the NBA. Hachimura is hitting 34% of his 3-point shots this season after hitting 44.7% last season, but he excels in the catch-and-shoot situations that are often created for James’ teammates by his penetration and playmaking.
Beal has dealt with injury problems, and now the Wizards are without Kristaps Porzingis, who sprained an ankle Saturday night. Washington announced Monday that Porzingis is week-to-week because of that injury.
