LeBron James makes a shocking statement about the future of the Los Angeles Lakers and Luka Donsic.

LeBron James said something very uncharacteristic when it comes to discussing Luka Donsic’s future with the Lakers.

The Lakers in Los Angeles were pinned for a big run this year in the playoffs. After landing Luka Doncic and finishing the year with 50 wins, they showed they could compete at the highest level.

However, the playoffs exposed this accidentally constructed flaw in the roster as the Timberwolves used them to eliminate them in the first round.

There were many reasons why the Lakers were such easy to eliminate. However, Lakers fans have hope as the offseason promises them an opportunity to develop more teams.

One of our biggest priorities is to re-sign Luka Doncic to a long-term expansion. However, LeBron James had a different perspective on the issue that might surprise fans.

In the detailed section of ESPN, LeBron James was asked if he would attempt to convince Luka Donsic to sign a long-term extension. Doncic’s current deal expires in 2026 and he is not eligible for Supermax.

However, LeBron James soon closed his chance to help him persuade Luka Donsic. He notes that they are at different stages of their careers, and Luke should make his own decisions.

“No, that’s not my job. I think… I think Luka knows how I feel about him, and in the end, that trade happened for the future.”

“It’s not for me. Luka has to decide what he has to do with his future. He’s (26), I’m 40, so he can’t build his career from me. It’s just true.

“But obviously, he will stay for the long term. Laker fan f****** loves him here. LA has accepted him. We love him as a teammate and brother. But he has to make a decision for him.

It seems like in the last few days LeBron James has dropped some hints that he is not satisfied with Luka Donsic’s trade.

The first hint came when James called Luka Donchik’s trade “challenging” and claimed it had a negative impact on the team’s dynamics.

Beyond that, LeBron appears to have expressed regret over Anthony Davis being traded. Is there a tension brewing or is James’ candidity a signal of his imminent retirement?

Stephen A. Smith gave Luka Donsic some career advice this summer if James finally leaves the Lakers.
