Earlier this offseason, James opted into his $52.6 million player option next season. The 21-time NBA All-Star is set to become an unrestricted free agent in the summer of 2026.

The Lakers were 15-8 in games Doncic and James both played. LA finished last season as the Western Conference's No. 3 seed. Lakers fans are eager to witness a full season with Doncic and James.

Despite being the NBA's oldest active player, LeBron James still plays at a high level. In 70 games in 2024-25, he averaged 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 1.0 steals on 51.3% shooting (37.6% from 3-point range).
