季前赛战罢，东契奇点赞球队防守，却直言仍有成长潜力

10月11日，湖人队明星球员东契奇在完成训练环节后，对媒体进行了面对面交流。

在连续的三轮赛事中，我观察到了防守端的诸多亮点。同时，在构建攻势的过程中，你们的表现尤为出色，三场比赛中，抢断与封盖的总数均超过了18次。

"Absolutely, I believe our defensive efforts have been exceptional, yet I am convinced there is ample room for further enhancement. You see, facing individuals like Sebel during practice is quite challenging, and we haven't yet had Walker (Kessler) on the court. Consequently, I am of the opinion that our potential for growth is substantial. Nonetheless, our current performance has undoubtedly made a significant impression."
