Luka Doncic is reportedly set to sign a massive four-year, $229 million contract extension with the Los Angeles Lakers, with the deal expected to become official on either August 2 or 3. The update comes from a European source closely tied to Doncic’s camp, ending months of speculation surrounding the superstar’s long-term future in L.A.
