D'Angelo Russell has a big contract decision ahead of him this summer.
Current Los Angeles Lakers starting point guard D'Angelo Russell faces a big decision this summer. The 6-foot-4 vet possesses an $18.7 million player option for the 2024-25 season. In a relatively depleted point guard market, he has perhaps more significant leverage this year than he would generally, following yet another uneven postseason performance.
Russell could opt into his contract, in which case it's possible L.A. could look to offload his contract during the offseason or by next year's trade deadline . Alternately, there's a possibility that the Lakers just decide to keep him and his lackluster defense around all year. Russell could opt out and head elsewhere.
Pincus notes that "multiple sources" indicated Brooklyn was kicking the tires on a deal to add Russell at the 2023-24 season's trade deadline, before ultimately adding Russell's former Lakers backup, Dennis Schröder.Using a trade exception it added by offloading Spencer Dinwiddie, the Nets could pay Russell as much as $20.6 million annually. Pincus suggests that Los Angeles could be in line to trade for young center Day'Ron Sharpe and a lucrative $16.
