The Lakers welcome good news! James may renew his contract for a maximum salary of 2 years, and the feat of the father and son on the same stage is a chance

Although the NBA has not officially entered the offseason, the Los Angeles Lakers have begun to actively carry out work on summer signings and strengthening. According to Draftstack reporter Ary, US Air Force Academy guard Ethan Taylor will try out for the Lakers. Taylor is 1.96 meters tall and is a player with "3D potential". His three-point shooting percentage has reached 37% in his college career, with a total of nearly 700 shots. It's a name worth paying attention to in the pre-draft stage. For the Lakers, who have limited salary space, it is very important to find a baby in the draft.
In addition, the Lakers will actively seek the possibility of introducing excellent inside players in the free market and trading market, including Adams, Kessler, Gafford, and Clarkston, all of them are one of the Lakers' recruitment targets, but for now, Capela is the most promising center that the Lakers have. The Athletic Lakers reporter Jovan On his show, Buha talked about the most likely center that the Lakers are in the free agent market this summer. He said: "I think the most likely one is Capela. I know you may not want to hear this. I think the reason why you are optimistic about Clint Capela is that among the higher-level center options among free agents, maybe I'm a bit exaggerating. I think he is the most likely to leave his team now. Because in Atlanta, he was replaced by Ocongu and moved to the bench. In this case, I think he is very likely to go elsewhere, whether as a starter or a high-level substitute center."
Of course, the most important task for the Lakers this offseason is to complete the contract renewal with Doncic and James. Doncic has completed the interview with him before, and the renewal is not a big problem. It's mainly James. The current news is that the Lakers are willing to keep James, but James' attitude is unclear. It's not that James wants to leave the Lakers, but that James has not clearly stated whether to execute the player choice or jump out of the contract and sign again. This makes many Lakers fans very anxious. But recently, Lakers reporter Anthony Irwin broke the news that James is expected to jump out of the player option for next season and sign a two-year contract with the Lakers that is close to the maximum salary, including the veto of the transaction, and there are still player options in the second year.
This is undoubtedly great news for Lakers and Lakers fans. If James really signs a two-year contract again, it means that he may have to play for at least two more years. In fact, James jumps out of the contract and signs again, which is good for him and the Lakers. The Lakers can be more flexible in renewing James. Although there is news that James will not choose to cut his salary, if there is really a chance to introduce very high-quality players, even All-Star players, make the Lakers completely a favorite to win the championship and let James see the opportunity to win the fifth championship in his career, then I believe James is willing to cut his salary, provided that the Lakers really need to complete very outstanding signing work in the offseason.
Secondly, for James, if he plays for two more years in the NBA, he will have the chance to complete the feat of father and son on the same stage with his eldest son and Bryce. At present, James' eldest son, Bryce, has entered the Lakers. He has completed the father and son on the same stage with James this season. James' second son Bryce graduated from high school this year and will be officially elected to the NBA after playing in the freshman season next year. If the Lakers choose Bryce again, James, Brownie and Bryce and Bryce are on the same stage with the Lakers. I believe that it will not only make James very happy, but also make the Lakers earn a lot of ratings and ticket money.
Of course, for the Lakers and James, the most important thing is to strive for the championship. With a top young superstar like Doncic and a historically superstar like James, it is a pity that the Lakers do not form a lineup to win the championship. Doncic has successfully lost weight this summer and may start his peak season next season. Perhaps this is also the reason why James chose to play for a few more years, because such Doncic may really let James see the dawn of winning the fifth championship in his career.
