Today, The Athletic famous reporter Sam Amick wrote an article about the league-wide view on James' choice.

He wrote: "Although the Lakers undoubtedly pay close attention to the direction of the final chapter of James' career, and they are extremely eager to use the entire season to celebrate his brilliant career before the 40-year-old legendary star entered the sunset as the saying goes. "But any plan beyond this time node will cause difficult lineup construction problems when he opens up the future path around the 26-year-old Doncic. This is the cruel reality that was nakedly revealed on Sunday."

"As long as the Lakers can successfully sign a contract renewal with Doncic on August 2, as generally expected by the outside world, every step of the future must be considered from a long-term perspective. Because of this, the Lakers obviously believe that it is not wise to leave James with a maximum salary contract after this season."
