Christian Wood stays with the Lakers

And if Christian Wood took advantage of the imminent change of coach Los Angeles to win there… from next season? Obviously, he believes it, because Hoopshype reports that he has decided to activate his $3 million “player option” to continue his adventure in California for another year.

As its 29th anniversary approaches, the interior therefore prefers to benefit from all the spotlights focused on the Lakers of LeBron James and his favorite player, Anthony Davis, in order to increase his value in 2024/25, at the end of a complicated exercise: 6.9 points and 5.1 rebounds on average (47% shooting), in 17 minutes and 50 games .

Unused in the playoffs, because injured, Christian Wood is in any case playing the card of caution, ensuring money and a place in a relatively competitive squad for the next campaign.

Sometimes criticized for his behavior in the locker room, the former Pistons or Rockets will try to redeem himself and he becomes the seventh member of Los Angeles to have a guaranteed contract for the coming season, imitating Anthony Davis, Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura, Jarred Vanderbilt, Gabe Vincent and Jalen Hood-Schifino.
