Luka is ready to WIN NOW as said during his contract extension press conference.
“We have what we need to compete for a championship. I will…try to win every game no matter what and we’ve got some new great guys joining the team. You know we’re going to go for it.” 😤🏆
According to NBA insider Tim Bontemps, Austin Reaves is expected to stay with the Lakers for now. He can opt out next summer and will presumably choose that path when his player option is only worth $14.9 million.
AR15 IS (MOST LIKELY) HERE TO STAY 🤩
Deandre Ayton already having fun in LA 😂
Luka could be due for a MASSIVE payout, per Dave McMenamin 🤑
By signing a 2+1 extension, Doncic can become an unrestricted free agent in either 2028 or 2029...The Lakers will be able to re-do his deal in 2027 and offer him a four-year, $323 million extension at that point.
NBA insider Marc Stein took to his Substack to set the record straight on LeBron and Bronny not being in attendance for Luka's contract extension signing:
“...I'm told that LeBron FaceTimed Doncic on Saturday morning to congratulate him on the new deal."
It’s been known that Luka was the future of the organization.
But to see the level of commitment he has shown so far is amazing to see.
Vando training footage just dropped 😤
How’s the jumper looking?
Remember when Luka had a beer snatched from his hand when he was a Mav?
His home has always been in LA.
