[Dan Woike] The Lakers remain “on the clock” when it comes to building a contender around Dončić…there’s an actual threat that he could have a wandering eye if the Lakers can’t deliver on the plans they presented last summer.
Dan Woike of The Athletic reported Sunday the Lakers remain “on the clock” when it comes to building a contender around Dončić seeing how he “is in the prime of his career and was traded away from a roster built to his specifications to compete for NBA titles.”
Woike explained the star will be eligible for a contract that could be worth more than $417 million before the 2028 season but still added “I think there’s an actual threat that he could have a wandering eye if the Lakers can’t deliver on the plans they presented last summer.”
