Los Angeles Lakers wing Rui Hachimura has quietly developed into a player who can check almost every box as the ideal forward in a lineup that's built around Luka Doncic. Since Los Angeles traded for him in 2023, he's worked to become the type of player they need on both ends of the floor. Hachimura shot the lights out, rebounded in ways he hadn't since his rookie season, and established invaluable positional versatility. In addition to becoming a sustainably elite catch-and-shoot option, Hachimura shot 44.5 percent on 110 corner three attempts—perhaps the most significant statistic of all. That's already reared its head in Los Angeles, as Hachimura shot 42.9 percent on three-point field goals off of passes from Doncic in 2024-25.
