Before leaving for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, LeBron James has agreed to a two-year, $104 million contract extension with the Lakers. This will likely be the future NBA Hall of Famer’s last contract before he retires in the purple and gold colors.
LeBron James remains the highest paid player on the Los Angeles Lakers, and team owner Jeanie Buss believes his contract remains a “good deal” given his impact since arriving in 2018. The 39-year-old remains one of the league’s best players and led the team to a championship title in the 2019/20 season.
“I think it’s so competitive that it really has to be something he wants to do,” Buss said of James’ Olympic participation. “And we always support our players in the decisions they make about whether or not they play for their national team. And it was a big decision for LeBron.” And yes, he’s our highest paid player, but it’s still a good deal for me.,” she said in an interview with AM570LASports.
