Some reasons why James stayed behind the Lakers! Doncic is not the main reason, family is the important reason

According to the report of famous reporter Shams: LeBron James will basically be determined to stay in the Lakers next season, and according to reports from multiple media. The Lakers provided James with a two-year, $128 million early contract renewal, including a trade veto (the overlord clause). James also made it clear that he hoped to retire from the Lakers!

And there are several reasons why LeBron and James chose to stay in the Lakers: First of all, Doncic's joining gave LeBron hope for the fifth championship.

Secondly, the Los Angeles Lakers team is compared to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Lakers are a "legendary team" in NBA history. The attention brought by retirement in this team may be the highest among all teams! The Lakers keep James, and the commercial value of the team should not be underestimated! Kobe's retirement tour brought $600 million in revenue to the Lakers at home!

The most important thing is family. James hopes his second son Bryce will participate in the 2026 NBA draft. Whether it is dynamic talent or static talent, Bryce, who is better than his brother, is the real inheritance of James' talent. So James also hopes to bring his second son to the NBA. Another competition on the same stage!
