NBA Twitter Reacts To Dennis Schröder Coming Back To The Lakers

 

Early in the 2019-20 NBA regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers reportedly offered Dennis Schröder a 4-year, $84 million contract extension that was eventually declined by the 27-year old 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.

Now, a year later, Dennis is back with the Lakers. But instead of having a contract of $84M, the German signed a one-year contract worth $2.6M. As you can imagine, this caused NBA Twitter to react, but while most fans joked about him returning to the team for a lot less, numerous Lakers fans were excited to see him come back.
