Congratulations James! The Lakers officially announced 2 people, Brownie new news, the Warriors smashed $400 million
As the new season approaches, the signing of free agency is nearing its end. The Rockets are squires and tycoons, just throw money: VanVleet's 3-year 130 million, averaging 19.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.8 steals per game; Brooks' 4-year 80 million, averaging 14.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game, shooting 39.6% from the field and 32.6% from three-point range; Randale's 4-year, $32 million averaged 6.6 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game.
On the Lakers' side, Pelinka's operation can be called god-level, Hachimura, Russell, and Reeves all remain, and there is no premium contract. Reinforced guard Vincent, 3D striker Prince, interior rising star Hayes, potential striker Reddish, and most importantly, Pelinka has kept these deals well under the luxury tax line. The Lakers have improved bench depth while retaining last season's Western Conference finals, and most importantly, they don't have to spend a penny.
The Warriors smashed $400 million
Some rejoice, others worry. ACCORDING TO A TWEET FROM SALARY EXPERT BOBBY, THE WARRIORS ALREADY HAVE A 13-POINT GUARANTEED CONTRACT ON THE TEAM AFTER SIGNING FORWARD DARIO SARRIC. There are currently 3 two-way contracts on the team, and the current salary of the entire team has reached a staggering $207 million, triggering the top luxury tax, which pays up to $189 million. The current total is 396 million, and if the Warriors continue to sign players next, it must break the $400 million mark.
According to the data, the Warriors will have 4 contracts above 10 million next season: Curry 51.92 million, Thompson 43.22 million, Wiggins 24.33 million, Green 27.59 million, Payton Jr. and Wayne Rooney 8.72 million and 8.5 million respectively. The Warriors' salary space is squeezing hard, and even if the team's market value has multiplied in the past decade, the high luxury tax can't bear it. At present, the Warriors still lack a backup center, and the total amount of more than 400 million is not a thing!
The Lakers officially announced 2 people
Today, the Lakers released a Twitter photo of the rookie signing, and Jaylen Hood Schiffino, the 17th pick in the first round, and Maxwell Lewis, the 40th pick in the second round, officially completed the signing with the Lakers.

Brownie New News
Shortly after the end of the 23rd draft, the 24th mock roster was released. In the 2024 NBA mock draft on the Tankathon website, James' son Brownie was selected by the Miami Heat at the end of the first round and is reportedly the 23rd pick in the first round.
Currently a freshman at USC, Brownie averaged 14.1 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.7 steals per game last season and was named to the McDonald's All-American Team.
Old Jen has previously said that he hopes that father and son will compete on the same stage if Brownie runs. The Lakers will probably sign in the draft because of Old Jen, one is to meet the wishes of the core of the team, and the second is that Bronnie's personal strength is not bad, and backed by Old Zhan's fame, ticket sales will not be bad.
