Luka Dončić's max extension with the Los Angeles Lakers makes him the new front-facing star of the team -- not LeBron James, an aging superstar playing the final years of a future Hall of Fame career. Still, James remains "supportive" of the franchise's move to lock in Dončić at three years and $165 million, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is still reportedly monitoring the team's offseason activity after his agent, Rich Paul, previously confirmed that he would be doing so.

LeBron James has led the Los Angeles Lakers project since arriving at Crypto.com Arena in the summer of 2018. From the outset, he’s been the undisputed King of the Purple and Gold, guiding the team to a championship in the 2020 NBA bubble. While that title has faced scrutiny in some corners of the league, it remains a hard-earned achievement.
