Notably absent from the press event was LeBron James, although Lakers GM Rob Pelinka did hint at the possibility of James ending his career with the Lakers. Despite his absence, LeBron made sure to extend his congratulations to Doncic.
NBA insider Marc Stein shared insights on Sunday about the Doncic extension, revealing that James had reached out to Doncic on the morning of the signing.
“LeBron, along with his son Bronny James, were not present at the press conference, but I have learned that LeBron congratulated Dončić via FaceTime on Saturday morning regarding his new contract,” Stein reported on his Substack.
