Lauri is a role player. HEAR ME OUT, HEAR ME OUT.
This season, his role is to be the main scoring threat (who still somehow takes only two shots more per 36 than Talen Horton-Tucker). He's doing a fine job. 9 to 5, lunch pail kinda guy. Happy to do whatever the team needs.
If we bring in a dude like Jaylen Brown who is obviously going to arrive with the expectation that he's the new #1 option, Lauri will go right back to being a 16ppg floor spacer. He won't complain. He's just gonna look at is as a new job description. No, he probably won't like it, but that's neither here nor there. He'll get right to work.
Nice guy, very good player, solid pro, absolutely zero alpha mentality.
