Famous reporter: James forgave the Lakers deal for Doncic with Thick Eyebrows because he respects the latter very much

Yesterday, ESPN famous reporters Ramona Shelburne and Brian Windhorst wrote an article about the relationship between James and the Lakers.

After the Lakers traded Doncic on February 1, they showed James the shift in the team's center of gravity through a series of subtle moves.

It is reported that the Lakers did not inform James in advance that they would trade Davis for Doncic, but James understood and forgave the fault because he respected Doncic very much and understood the decision made by the team to keep it confidential.

Shortly after getting Doncic, Pelinka tried to partner him with Mark Williams, a young athletic center. For many years, Davis and James have been asking the team to introduce a real center, but they have never been able to do it.

When the Bass family agreed to sell most of the team's shares to Mark Walter on June 18, Doncic was notified in advance and publicly expressed his congratulations on social media. James did not receive the same notice and did not post any comments on the public platform afterwards.

Of course, the most critical point is that the Lakers did not offer James an early contract renewal, which shows that they are satisfied with having such a superstar stay on the team with an expiring contract, which is very rare among superstars.
