1:13pm, 3 August 2025Basketball
On August 3, the NBA offseason ushered in a shock! The Los Angeles Lakers officially announced that they have officially reached a contract renewal with super star Luka Doncic. According to reliable sources, this is a three-year maximum salary contract with a total value of up to $165 million. The Lakers management acted quickly and held a grand franchise press conference for the new core. The

press conference was full of stars, led by head coach JJ Redick, and many other important players including new players Smart, Hachimura, Jaxen Hays, DeAndre Ayton, Maxi Kleber and Jared Vanderbilt were present to express their warm welcome and firm support for Doncic's joining with practical actions. Doncic's popularity in the Lakers' locker room can be seen.
However, the "Jandong Link" scene that fans are looking forward to has not appeared - the team's star LeBron James missed this important ceremony. At this moment, he was leisurely in the golf course. What’s more dramatic is that James shared a video on his personal social media: the green field is covered with thick fog and the visibility is extremely low.
"Tsk tsk, do you want to play golf in such weather? I don't know how to chase my golf ball. What if I hit someone directly? This is crazy." James teased at the camera. The swing in the thick fog and the choice of absent conference undoubtedly added a hint of mystery to the superstar's summer activities.
Although James himself did not show up, Lakers General Manager Robert Pelinka still took the initiative to mention the core leader at the press conference. Pelinka said earnestly: "All the communication between us and LeBron and his team, especially Ritchie Paul, has always been active, supportive and very professional. We maintain an open and continuous dialogue."
He particularly emphasized the Lakers' respect for James' personal planning: "The most important thing about LeBron's career is to respect the decisions of his and his family, especially the choice of his future years of competition. It is crucial that he has the right to set his own timeline." Pelinka also revealed the Lakers' deep expectations, "Of course, if his career ends with the Lakers, it will be of great significance to everyone."
Doncic airborne Los Angeles, with a maximum salary of 165 million showing the core blueprint of the Lakers' future; and James swinging in the thick fog, his future role and whereabouts are like the white fog on the golf course, which attracts endless imagination. Pelinka's speech not only expresses respect but also implicitly retains it. The balance of voice in the Lakers locker room and on-field chemistry will become the biggest highlight in the new season. When the legend meets the new king, the Lakers' course has quietly changed.
