Lakers' Luka Doncic predicted to leave Los Angeles for Thunder this summer | Sporting News

The Los Angeles Lakers may surprisingly consider cutting ties with their star guard in free agency.

Luka Doncic, currently with the Dallas Mavericks, is predicted to potentially leave the team in the summer of 2024 when he becomes a free agent, with speculation pointing towards a move to the Los Angeles Lakers.
