After Doncic renewed his contract, James was absent from the scene and did not congratulate him. This was unexpected.

August 1st, it was intriguing that a whole day had passed since Doncic's contract renewal. James did not make any official statement. Compared with the time when Davis renewed his contract, he would not act at all.

Doncic signed a super shocking contract with the Lakers, and renewed the contract in advance for 165 million yuan in three years and stayed with the team. In 2028, Doncic will have the opportunity to become a free agent again. By then, the contract he can sign will reach 417 million in five years, with an average annual salary of more than 80 million.

The Doncic took off with him a complete sign and the Lakers paid unprecedented attention to his renewal. At the press conference for Doncic to officially announce the renewal of the contract, a large number of new Lakers teammates, especially the new teammates he actively recruited, came to support him, but James was not there.

Jie James didn't come at such an important moment. He could not have known that Doncic had completed the contract renewal. However, at this press conference, Doncic's teammates came in a total of 7 people, but there was no James. Vanderbilt, Ayton, Haymura, Hays, Vincent, Smart and Laravia all came, and head coach Redick and general manager Pelinka also came.

The Lakers' seven main superstars are all here in the new season, but James doesn't. This is intentional. This is already a signal that he is very dissatisfied with the Lakers' attitude and is unhappy that the Lakers have kicked him out of the core lineup, so his choice is to refuse to congratulate Doncic, refuse to speak, and leave no face to the Lakers.

The most important operation of this team this summer is this contract renewal. As a result, James does not want to congratulate him now, and is also preparing to turn against the Lakers through his own behavior. Some people say that Reeves didn't seem to come either, why are you talking about James? But the problem is that there is at least a reason why Reeves is not here, and he is doing a trip to China.

Reeves wanted to come, but he couldn't come. He had recently come to Xiamen and Shenzhen for a tour of China, but James didn't come to congratulate him on the spot, and he hadn't even posted a message. What's the reason? If you don’t say you won’t come to the scene, James hasn’t even posted a statement congratulating him. Isn’t this intentional, making Doncic embarrass the Lakers?

Compare, when Anthony Deves renewed his contract with the Lakers, James directly celebrated his contract renewal and posted a dynamic call to Brother Davis, since the contract renewal has been completed, we should go to train. This is the original statement from King James at that time. Now, Doncic didn't say a word about renewing his contract. He had such a big reaction to the renewal of the contract. Does he really know what Donghuang and the Lakers' contract renewal mean? But he deliberately did not speak, which meant to turn against him.
