HE STAY
Good deal for the lakers
Before people say this is an overpay, just take a second to consider that the cap is expected to rise with the new CBA deal
incoming overused injury jokes. glad to see him get paid
KLUTCHSPORTS CEO RICH PAUL
AD ON THE WAY
Massive W
State of California feasting on AD’s taxes
This sub is the most predictable place ever lmao
Every contract is bad now, you have to adjust your expectations to the new TV money
Why was the max offer reported as 170m earlier?
Great deal,
Keeping a superstar on the team to bring in more superstars is the way to go. He is healthy now and when healthy he is an MVP caliber player.
Start making a place for #3 in the rafters.
So his deal will run through his age 35 season. Crazy how time flies, felt like yesterday he was dominating at Kentucky
Nice deal for the Lakers.
Ad could have gotten more next year but with his injury history its a nice security blanket
Just bought an AD jersey this year so I’m happy. LFG
Cap gonna be giant by then and he didn’t wait to hit free agency and get an extra year for his age 35 season
I’m happy with this
Bro getting 66 million in 2027-2028😭
I’m hoping to get promoted to senior scientist this fall
He extended his contract with zero drama and immediately. I’m stunned in the best way. He stay!
So who’s the next guy to pass him?
Ppl need to stop focusing on the dollar amount and more on the cap %. Everyone is gonna get paid in the Nba.
AD ON THE STAY
Kawhi is going to take everything we got
Rather pay $60M to AD than Jaylen Brown that’s for sure
Excellent news. Really really good news. He’s no longer a Hornet/Pelican now, he’s a Laker.
NBA money is just stupid.
at $62m/yr He might make $1m per regular season game played
Gross. It’s not like he’ll be healthier the older he gets. Dumb lakers
He can buy a lot of street clothes with that money 😂
I mean, they had to pay him the money regardless of inevitable health issues.
Worth it
Let’s fucking go!
Glass man gets paid
