It makes sense that Rui has been so great, he’s been working out with Bron the past two off seasons. Rui has put in a lot of work and deserves to not be thrown away by some fickle Laker fans
I’ve been pointing it out since last year, and it’s a good thing JJ mentioned it a while back — Rui will go for 30 minutes in real time without touching the ball, and would still make a wide open 3. He would still compete on the defensive end. And on top of that, his shooting translates in the playoffs, in fact the efficiency gets higher too.
He fits so well with Luka and AR. And on the business side, he generates overseas revenue too (Japan Media) so I would say he has a “soft” untouchable in terms of trades with the front office.

He's so fun to watch shoot. Every shot he does this goofy hop and skip. He really takes pride in his art.
He fits perfectly, I feel he can fit in any team. He plays the right away, and plays defense. He deserve all the credit and praise.
His middy has improved significantly
I hope they resign him.
what website is that?
Even when he eventually regresses he's still a 50/40 guy
dude is a bucket
I was noticing him picking up that consistency during the wolves series last season
This guy just lacks the aggressiveness a superstar has. He’s like Andrew Wiggins with very high potential unfortunately it stops there.
