NBA:
If Rui shifts to the bench, how does that alter the Lakers’ second-unit dynamics and scoring balance?
Qwiket AI:
Rui off the bench could deliver a spark scoring wise, especially against reserve lineups. His defense would still need to hold up, but the second unit could be designed to leverage his put-back opportunities and mid-range shooting. The trade-off is ensuring the offense remains fluid without Rui’s perimeter flaws becoming consistent liabilities.
