Lakers New Look 2025 | Luka Doncic Contract UPDATE!!!

The #Lakers enter the 2025-26 season under second-year head coach JJ Redick with a roster fully geared for a title run‼️

This offseason, the Lakers added Deandre Ayton, Marcus Smart, and Jake LaRavia, giving them size, defense, and floor spacing.

The projected starting lineup features #LukaDoncic, Austin Reaves, #LeBronJames, Rui Hachimura, and Ayton-a combination of elite playmaking, shooting, and interior presence.

Smart brings defensive leadership off the bench, while LaRavia provides shooting & defensive depth. Rookie Adou Thiero is more of a developmental piece and unlikely to see significant minutes early.

💰 Financially, the Lakers sit $33.8M over the cap, just under the first apron, and well below the second apron. Their payroll is around $194M, leaving space for only a veteran minimum and a two-way deal. The biggest remaining hole is an elite 3-and-D wing who can defend top scorers and knock down shots—a priority for the front office as they look to round out the rotation.

With Luka and LeBron leading the charge, and Ayton fortifying the paint, the Lakers are firmly in championship-or-bust mode. 🏆💜💛
