LeBron James Hyped Dennis Schröder Returns To Lakers: “So Damn Happy To Have You Back!”

 

Early in the 2019-20 NBA regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers offered Dennis Schröder a 4-year, $84 million contract extension that was eventually declined by the point guard. Schröder was reportedly willing to stay, but was looking for a bigger pay raise at around $100-120 million.

Schröder had a good start for the Lakers and came in help when LeBron James and Anthony Davis were battling injuries in the regular season. However, an abysmal production in the playoffs quickly lowered his value and put him a tight situation in this year’s free agency.

So instead of a $84M payday with the Lakers that was on his table earlier, Dennis had to take a $5.9M offer sheet from the Celtics, was traded to the Rockets mid-season and became a free agent.

Then, yesterday news broke that Schröder will be coming back to the Lakers. The point guard signed a one-year, $2.6 million contract – which is a bargain for what the German brings to the table.

LeBron James, who had previously teased with the idea of teaming up with Schröder again, was more than happy that the Lakers could finish the deal.

 

“Yessir! So damn happy to have you back!! You’re like that! LFG!!!”
