原文（節錄）＋翻譯：

There are still a few weeks to go before NBA free agency begins in earnest on
June 30, but the Lakers have already made it clear that keeping Rui Hachimura
will be one of their top priorities when it begins.

距離六月三十日自由市場正式開啟，還有數個星期的時間，但湖人已經清楚表明，留住八
村壘將會是該隊其中一個首要的任務。

The team has been leaking for the last month that they will match any offer
for Hachimura (and his fellow restricted free agent, Austin Reaves), but it
still remains to be seen if Hachimura will be able to get the money he’s
seeking directly from the Lakers, or if he’ll have to sign an offer sheet
with another team that Los Angeles will then have to choose whether or not to
match.



When asked about that upcoming free agent process on ESPN’s “Hoop Streams”
before Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday night, Hachimura made it clear he
was appreciative of his time in purple and gold but was noncommittal about a
return (emphasis mine):

星期五晚間（即總冠軍賽第四戰開始前），在 ESPN 的節目上被問到自由球員的前景時，
八村壘對於在紫金軍團的時光是非常感激的，但對於回鍋與否卻不予置評。

他的說法是：

“The reason why I requested the trade is that I wanted to be somewhere I
could be happy and play basketball, that liked me as a basketball player,
that believed in me, and the Lakers were one of the teams that was really
interested in me. My agent and the team did a good job, and I went to the
Lakers and it was a crazy season for me... Back at that time, we didn’t even
know we were going to make the playoffs. So we made the playoffs and the
playoff run was pretty good, we lost to Denver but it was pretty good for us.
I don’t know my future but I just want to be somewhere I can be happy. The
Lakers have been good and we’re going to see.”






短評：

目前看來，還要應付薪資帽的問題...

不知是否還有足夠的空間，以留住打進西冠的班底（陣容）呢？
