Famous reporter: The Lakers are a little nervous about Doncic s contract renewal. If he does not renew the contract, he may lead to crazy pursuit.

famous reporter Brian Windhorst talked about Doncic's contract renewal on ESPN's program today.

"I think it (Doncic renewal) will not happen too early. There are some specific reasons that may cause the renewal time to be postponed until after September. Doncic will play for the Slovenian national team this summer, so if Doncic has not renewed the contract in September, Lakers fans don't have to be too nervous.

"As for Doncic's contract renewal, there are 25%, 30%, and 35%. For Doncic, the Lakers want to give a maximum salary contract with 30% salary space. If Doncic signs, the Lakers can rest assured and review the Lakers' lineup, and build a championship lineup around Doncic for the next two years. But if Doncic does not renew his contract, he will become a free agent next summer with more than 10 teams using their cap space. If Doncic does not renew his contract, you will see other teams using various methods to pursue Doncic in a crazy way. In this case, once the Lakers experience some turmoil, such as losing streak, or the results have not improved in December, things like this will put a lot of pressure. Some of the Lakers will be closely related to Doncic's contract renewal, especially when James is already in the last year of the contract. So the Lakers don't want this kind of pressure, they will directly give a 30% maximum salary contract in August. "Windhorst said.

Doncic can renew his contract with the Lakers in advance from August 3. Due to being traded by the Mavericks, Doncic missed the super maximum salary contract this summer. He can sign a four-year, $223 million contract with the Lakers, or choose a shorter three-year, $160 million contract (including player options), so that he can reach the conditions for playing in the NBA for 10 years in 2028, and thus sign a five-year, $418 million (the specific amount depends on the change in the salary cap).
