Yeah I remember getting killed here for loving this pickup by the Lakers.Rui Hachimura didn't have "the game of his life", that's just who he is. When he was traded to the Lakers, half the port cellar said "he's a bum, nobody who played on the Wizards could possibly have been used and coached poorly!", and the other half had actually watched him play and said "that's a great value pickup there".
He's gonna be expensive in RFA this summer.
Hachimura was one of the guys who came to mind as the type of player who could fill Horford’s role in the other thread. He’s the ultimate frontcourt role player with size to be switchable on bigs and doesn’t require touches and can space the floor. Has an old school game but is still only 24.
