Now, after recently agreeing to a three-year, $165 million extension with the Lakers, Doncic has returned to Slovenia to begin practicing with the national team ahead of EuroBasket 2025. And according to reports, the Slovenian media has revealed just how much weight he’s shed over the last year.

So Doncic took the next step toward turning his dreams into reality Saturday when he agreed to a three-year, $165 million maximum contract extension through 2028 with the Lakers, bypassing a chance at free agency next summer.

Los Angeles Lakers have made Luka Doncic the face of their franchise. Doncic signed a three-year extension. This sets the stage for a possible $418 million deal. The Lakers traded for Doncic last February.
