After two dismal performances in two games, the Lakers forward finally found his due level.

In a previous NBA preseason game, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Golden State Warriors 126-116 at home. After this game, the Lakers achieved their first victory in the preseason and currently have a record of 1 win and 2 losses; while the Warriors suffered their first defeat in the preseason and currently have a record of 2 wins and 1 loss.

In this game, the performance of the Lakers' starting striker Rui Hachimura finally improved a lot. Hachimura played 27 minutes and 12 seconds, making 6 of 10 shots, 3 of 4 from beyond the three-point line, and 1 of 1 free throw. He scored 16 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 steal. He also had 4 turnovers and 2 fouls, with a plus-minus of +5. Rui Hachimura finally showed his due scoring and shooting abilities in this game. He also seized the opportunity to score a lot of points and provided a lot of support for the team on the offensive end. His characteristics in moving without the ball and shooting also help the team open up space. In addition, Hachimura's performance on the defensive end was quite satisfactory, and there were no major problems. Of course, if Hachimura can control his turnovers, his performance on the court and his contribution to the team will be further improved. But no matter what, his performance in this game is already quite good, and he has also brought out all his characteristics.

In the NBA regular season last season, Hachimura was affected by injuries in 82 games and played a total of 59 times. His average playing time reached 31.8 minutes per game, and his average data per game was 12.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.5 blocks, 0.9 turnovers and 1.8 fouls. The shooting percentage was 49.2%, the three-point shooting percentage was 40.9%, and the free throw percentage was 77.5%. In the playoffs, Hachimura played a total of 5 times, averaging 36.4 minutes per game. He averaged 14.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1 assist, 0.6 steals, and 0.6 blocks per game. He also had 1.4 turnovers and 2.4 fouls. He shot 49.1% from the field, 48.4% from the three-point range, and 100% from the free throw line. Since the preseason, Hachimura has averaged 23.3 minutes per game in the first three games, averaging 10.3 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 1.3 steals, and 1.7 turnovers. He shot 42.3% from the field, 44.4% from the three-point range, and 62.5% from the free throw line.

Hachimura's overall performance last season was quite good. He showed excellent scoring and shooting abilities. However, in the previous two preseason games, Hachimura's performance was very average. His presence on the offensive end was very limited, and his contribution on the defensive end was also seriously insufficient, which made everyone very worried about his status. In this game, he finally showed his due level on the offensive end, but his stability in form is also worrying. In the next games, can he adjust his condition and provide greater help and support to the team?
