Despite speculation about LeBron James' future in Los Angeles, Luka Doncic still shows that he is standing with his superstar teammates.
“Luka loves playing with LeBron and learns a lot from him. He has the greatest respect for LeBron and considers it an honor to be his teammates,” Doncic's agent Lara Beth Seager told ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.
Siga also said: “Since we arrived in Los Angeles, the Lakers leadership team has been very enthusiastic and supportive of Luca, and over the past few months we have spent a lot of time talking and getting to know each other and we have built strong working relationships. When you work together, the championship is won. We all share the same goals when you work together.”
In the blockbuster deal, the two stars teamed up in Los Angeles to bring Don Sic to Dallas last season.
As James and Don Cic quickly developed chemistry on the court, the Lakers' front desk seemed to turn the franchise to Don Coch's timeline, James was in a volatile position as James entered the final year of the deal.
Earlier this month, NBA insider John Gambadoro reported that LeBron did not like playing with Doncic.
“LeBron doesn’t like playing with Luca,” Gambadoro said. “Reeves doesn't like playing with Luca. Reeves doesn't like the ball with two seconds left when shooting. LeBron doesn't like playing with Luca. The Lakers will turn their attention around Luca instead of LeBron.
“So, this is Luca’s team,” Gambadoro added. “…He might be back, but I wouldn't say it's a guaranteed LeBron because some people don't like playing with Luca.”
Rumors may continue to fly, but what actually happened inside the Lakers is still a mystery.
