Lakers’ key to keeping LeBron James is not the Anthony Davis extension

The Los Angeles Lakers are at a turning point in their quest to keep their championship-caliber team together and ensure LeBron James‘ long-term future. Building a strong supporting cast could be a genuine key to keeping LeBron in LA, even though the recent Anthony Davis contract extension undoubtedly strengthens the team’s stability.

Unquestionably one of the greatest basketball players of all time, LeBron James has had a significant impact on and off the court. His leadership, adaptability, and basketball IQ are traits that can help a team succeed. So far, the Lakers have surrounded him with a roster that complements his attributes and addresses his weaknesses as he ages.
