The Lakers second team had an eye-catching debut! Is it estimated that the Nets abandoned player will return to the NBA soon?

In a previous NBA Development League game, the Los Angeles Lakers' South Bay Lakers, an affiliate of the NBA Development League, playing at home, easily defeated the Valley Suns, an affiliate of the Phoenix Suns in the NBA Development League, 144-105, successfully getting off to a good start in their rookie season.

In this game, South Bay Lakers starting power forward Drew Timme performed very eye-catchingly. Timmy played for 32 minutes, shooting 10 of 20, 1 of 4 from beyond the three-point line, and 7 of 9 free throws. He scored a game-high 34 points, plus 11 rebounds and 6 assists, a quasi-triple-double. He also had 2 fouls, and the plus-minus reached a game-high +42. Timmy is unstoppable on the offensive end. He has shown comprehensive scoring ability. Not only does he have excellent scoring ability at the basket, he also has certain shooting ability. He also has certain passing ability and support ability. Timmy's skills are delicate and solid, and his offensive methods are so rich that opponents really have no way to effectively restrict him. In addition, Timmy also played a good role in rebound protection on the defensive end. The team's overall situation is also quite outstanding when Timmy is on the court, and his series of strong performances are also a key factor in the team's victory.

Timmy was born in September 2000. He is 25 years old, 206cm tall and 107kg in weight. He is the undrafted pick in the 2023 NBA draft. Last season, Timmy joined the Brooklyn Nets at the end of the season. He played a total of 9 times in the NBA regular season, averaging 28.2 minutes per game. He averaged 12.1 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.4 steals, and 0.1 blocks per game. He also had 1.7 turnovers and 2.3 fouls. He shot 44.1% from the field, 25.7% from the three-point range, and 62.5% from the free throw line. In the NBA Summer League this summer, Timmy played a total of 3 times for the Nets, averaging 30.7 minutes per game. He averaged 25.3 points, 8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1 steal, and 0.7 blocks per game. He also had 1.7 turnovers and 2.7 fouls. He shot 55.4% from the field, 21.4% from the three-point range, and 64.7% from the free throw line. In the previous NBA preseason games, Timmy played a total of 2 times, averaging 11.8 minutes per game. He averaged 3 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, and 0.5 steals per game. He also had 1.5 turnovers and 1.5 fouls. He shot 33.3% from the field and 0% from the three-point range.

Although he performed well at the end of last season and showed super personal ability in the summer league, it may be because his performance during the preseason was so poor that Timmy still didn't get the chance to stay on the team. In a previous deal, the Lakers acquired his NBA Development League ownership rights from the Long Island Nets, an NBA Development League affiliate of the Nets. In this game, in his debut with the South Bay Lakers, Timmy played such a phenomenal performance, proving his strength as the top scorer in the NCAA. If Timmy can continue to perform like this, it is estimated that he will return to the NBA game soon?
