Lakers Expected to Make Key Contract Decision Before Season

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Los Angeles Lakers have had a solid offseason thus far. While they haven't made a ton of moves, they have made quality additions. Being able to extend Luka Doncic on a three-year, $165 million deal was the biggest win of the offseason. Outside of that, the Lakers have brought in three players from the outside to beef up their roster. Deandre Ayton is the biggest name that was added this offseason. He will have a chance to be the franchise center Los Angeles badly needed last year. Both Marcus Smart and Jake LaRavia were added in NBA free agency as well.

Read more: Warriors Receive Major Update on Jonathan Kuminga Situation One of those players is forward Rui Hachimura. He is extension eligible, but whether or not the Lakers plan to extend him has been one question that needs to be answered. According to NBA insider Jovan Buha, who has covered the team for some time, Hachimura is not expected to receive an extension from Los Angeles. "With the current intel I have, I do not expect Rui to be extended by the Lakers in the next six weeks," Buha said. "It's certainly possible that something happens, but I would say most of what's been out there is them wanting to keep the books clean and wanting to see whether he starts or whether he's their sixth man and how the pieces fit this year." Hachimura has turned into a key role player for the Lakers. However, his long-term fit with the franchise remains to be seen. During the 2024-25 NBA season with Los Angeles, Hachimura played in 59 games and started in 57 of those appearances. He averaged 13.1 points, five rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game, while shooting 50.9 percent from the floor and 41.3 percent from three-point range.

Expect to hear more about Hachimura and his possible extension in the near future. For now, it doesn't seem likely that the team will extend him.

Wisconsin football wide receiver included on notable watch list

Wisconsin football starting wide receiver Trech Kekahuna was included on the 2025 Polynesian College Football Player of the Year Watch List on Thursday. Entering his third season as a member of the Badgers, Kekahuna accompanied 80 other players across 40 different NCAA Division I programs on the preseason watch list. The prestigious honor annually recognizes college football's most outstanding player of Polynesian ancestry who embodies leadership and probity both on and off the gridiron. Notable award winners at the collegiate level include Marcus Mariota (2014), Tua Tagovalioa (2018), Penei Sewell (2019), Zach Wilson (2020) and Tetairoa McMillan (2024). Finalists for the 2025 nod will be shared on Dec. 9, and the victor will be announced on Dec. 16. After suiting up as a depth option at wide receiver in 2024, Kekahuna projects to enter the 2025 season as the starting slot wide receiver alongside outside threats Vinny Anthony II and Jayden Ballard. As a redshirt junior, Kekahuna reeled in 25 catches for 339 yards in 12 appearances. Kekahuna's most impressive performance arrived on Oct. 5 against Purdue. The Hawaii native's six-catch, 134-yard, two-touchdown output propelled UW to a 52-6 triumph and even earned him Big Ten Freshman of the Week honors. With former wide receiver standout Will Pauling out of the wide receiver room, Kekahuna is now poised for even more deep-ball opportunities. New offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes abides by a ground-and-pound philosophy, so his workload will be interesting to monitor as the season progresses.

Stephen A. Smith says he and LeBron James have ‘no relationship' after bitter feud

Things did not end on a good note with Stephen A. Smith and LeBron James. During an appearance on former NBA All-Star Gilbert Arenas' 'Gil's Arena' podcast Friday, Smith said that he has zero contact with James and does not have any interest in ever speaking to him again. 'There's no situation and there's no relationship,' Smith said. 'He doesn't like me, and I don't like him.' Advertisement 3 Stephen A. Smith looks on during the game between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder during Game 2 of the 2025 NBA Finals on June 8, 2025 at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. NBAE via Getty Images Smith's comments stem from his feud with the 21-time All-Star earlier this year, when the two threw jabs at each other during various appearances on ESPN, which ultimately led to an in-person confrontation during a game in March. The ESPN sports personality added that other things happened between him and James 'behind the scenes' that the public does not know about. Advertisement 'All I would say is people don't know the things that have happened behind the scenes,' Smith said. 'Things that have been said, who they've been said to. The kind of things that have been engaged in in an effort to hurt me, along with contemporaries and others.' Smith also mentioned how he did not appreciate how James came at him on 'The Pat McAfee Show,' which airs directly after 'First Take' on ESPN. 3 Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James arguing with the ref in the second half of a game against the Knicks. Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post 'There's a lot of s–t that I don't say. And there's a reason that I feel the way that I do. And the last straw was him approaching me and turning the Bronny thing into something about me attacking somebody's family, when it was him I was talking about. Not Bronny. Advertisement 'And then to go on 'The Pat McAfee Show,' which comes directly on after my show. On the channel that I work on. To insult me. Now, people can get into all kind of components that go into it and all that other stuff. I have nothing to say.' 3 Stephen A. Smith looks on before the game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers during Game 3 of the 2025 NBA Finals on June 11, 2025 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. NBAE via Getty Images Smith concluded by saying that he plans to only mention James in the context of NBA analysis going forward. Advertisement 'I'm never going to denigrate any employer, any partner, or myself by getting into anything excessively, unnecessarily, when it comes to him or anybody else,' Smith said. 'I'm going to do my job. I'm going to cover the game of basketball. 'But if I never, ever speak to him again in life, that will be OK. And I'm good with it.'
