On July 10, according to famous reporter Sam Amick, Jenny Buss is still the helm of the Lakers, and he will even be the helm for the next five years. What is confusing is that James is in an embarrassing situation. The Lakers have not responded to the news that James has implemented the player option so far, and are unwilling to meet James' requirements to form a winning lineup. Since James joined the Lakers, the team's management has always met James' requirements, but he did not expect that he would suddenly have such an attitude.

The reporter said that although Jenny is the helm, it is not ruled out that the new boss will not participate in the team's decision-making. If the team does not form a winning lineup, perhaps the new boss does not want to give James privileges. Previous reports said that the Lakers will not have too many operations this summer, and the team is more focused on freeing up salary space in 2027 to pursue big-name stars. According to this meaning, the Lakers management wants to wait until James' contract expires and then look for big-name stars who can cooperate with Doncic.

In the agreement reached between the Bass family and new owner Walters, and the NBA league, Jenny will continue to be the helm of the Lakers for at least five seasons. Now that James is in such an embarrassing situation, it should be related to Jenny's decision, and the new boss may also participate. In any case, it is true that the Lakers have not responded for a long time after James announced the execution of the player option, which can indirectly illustrate the Lakers' attitude. After all, the Lakers have officially announced the signing of Laravia and Ayton, but James does not.

After coming to Doncic from the Lakers' trade, the team made it clear that he was the future, but they didn't expect that the team's attitude towards James changed so quickly. It was Xiao Tiantian at the beginning, but now Mrs. Niu. Although James is in his 40s, his competitive state is still well maintained and he has the ability to win the championship. The Lakers can consider the fact that he and Doncic will win the championship together, which is beneficial to both sides.
