Lakers focus on re-signing Reaves and LeBron while pursuing centers

The Los Angeles Lakers are prioritizing contract extensions for guard Austin Reaves and forward LeBron James as the offseason progresses. Reaves is expected to opt out of his current deal in search of a more lucrative contract, with reports suggesting the Lakers could secure him for around five years and $200 million. Meanwhile, LeBron James is anticipated to sign for less than his previous $52 million contract, though he remains integral to the team's plans. The Lakers also have a goal of acquiring an A-list center, following input from Luka Dončić, despite limited options available in the market.
