LeBron James congratulated Luka Doncic on his new three-year, $165 million contract extension via a video call on Saturday, sources confirmed to ESPN.

LeBron James' Absence From Luka Doncic's Contract Announcement Sparks Buzz originally appeared on Athlon Sports. In a move that can only be described as one of the biggest of the offseason, the Los Angeles Lakers were able to sign Luka Doncic to an extension.

This comes after weeks of reported tension between James and the Lakers. According to ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne and Brian Windhorst, the four-time MVP was said to be displeased with how some decisions were handled during the Lakers’ transition to the Doncic era—including contract talks and public messaging around the team’s direction.
