Shams：AR可能會得到一份遠遠高於5000萬美元的報價
At this point, there is no doubt that the Los Angeles Lakers will do everything
they can to sign Austin Reaves to an extension this summer. The 24-year-old has
emerged as perhaps the biggest bargain in the NBA right now, with Reaves set to
pocket just $1.6 million this season. Well, thanks to his breakout campaign with
the Lakers, the 6-foot-5 shooting guard has now set himself up for a major pay
hike this coming season once he hits free agency.
目前來看，洛杉磯湖人隊將盡一切努力在今年夏天與Austin Reaves簽下續約。這位24歲的
後衛已經成為NBA中最大的物超所值球員之一，Reaves本賽季的薪水只有160萬美元。憑藉他
在湖人隊的崛起，這位身高6英尺5英寸的得分後衛在自由市場上為自己爭取到了一份高薪的
機會。
This situation could present itself as a major dilemma for the Lakers, though, a
ccording to NBA insider Shams Charania, Simply put, LA might not be able to mat
ch whatever offer Reaves is able to receive in free agency in the offseason:
The most the Lakers can offer outright is four years, a bit over $50 million,”
Shams said. “… But then, if you’re Austin Reaves, what can you get out in the
marketplace? I think more and more teams around the league, teams with cap spac
e, teams like Houston (and) San Antonio, you have to look at a guy like that bec
ause he’s not old. He’s not super young either. He’s kind of that middle-of-t
he-pack age range guy that is still young enough career-wise that can come in, f
it among your group, be a veteran leader to an extent, but still grow and develo
p with your group. I think there is a concern for sure if you’re the Lakers tha
t he’s gonna get potentially an offer sheet way, way, way higher than 50.
然而，根據Shams Charania的說法。他表示：“湖人隊最多只能提供四年總額約為5000萬美
元的合約。...但如果你是Austin Reaves，你在市場上能夠得到什麼樣的報價呢？我認為越
來越多的球隊，特別是像休士頓火箭和聖安東尼奧馬刺這樣有薪資空間的球隊，都會看中這
樣的球員。他還不算老，但也不是年輕到無法成長的程度，正處於一個中間的年齡層，足以
融入球隊，成為一位經驗豐富的領袖，同時還能隨著球隊一起成長和發展。如果你是湖人隊
，肯定會擔心他可能會收到的報價遠遠超過5000萬的報價。
Based on what we’ve seen from him this season, it wouldn’t be a complete shock
if an opposing team (such as the Houston Rockets or the San Antonio Spurs, as p
er Shams) were to offer him a new deal that’s worth more than the $54 million t
he Lakers are able to put on the table. Because of their salary cap restrictions
, LA might just get priced out here. In fact, as reported by ClutchPoints beat r
eporter Michael Corvo, an opposing team could potentially come forward with an o
ffer for Reaves in the region of $100 million for four years.
根據我們本季所見，如果對手球隊（例如Shams所提到的休士頓火箭或聖安東尼奧馬刺）能
夠提供超過湖人隊所能出價的1億美元合約，這並不會令人驚訝。由於薪資上的限制，湖人
隊可能無法與其他球隊競爭。事實上，根據Clutch Points的記者Michael Corvo的報導，對
手球隊有可能會提供一份為期四年的合約，其價值在1億美元左右。
