The Los Angeles Lakers are entering a pivotal offseason with a dramatic shift in their franchise hierarchy. LeBron James, the pillar of the team, is no longer sitting at the top of the front office's priority list, according to an insider.
As the organisation maps out its financial strategy for the summer, the focus has significantly turned toward youth and long-term sustainability. Lakers beat writer Jovan Buha reported that the Lakers will actively prioritise securing the signature of Austin Reaves over retaining James.
