While the Lakers begin their first playoff campaign with Luka Doncic, Kendrick Perkins spoke on the future of Slovenian in the City of Angels. And for him, no room for doubts.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A Lakers A player since last February, Luka Doncic did not hide a certain disappointment after his departure from the Mavericks. It is not unfortunate to have landed in Los Angeles alongside LeBron James, but his initial plan was very clear: imitating Dirk Nowitzki by winning a title and spending the rest of his career in Texas to do better.<\/p>\n

Except that Nico Harrison has been there, he who estimated that Slovenian's defense was incompatible with the possibility of winning a championship<\/strong> In the NBA. A curious outing, yes, but Doncic did not have the choice on its side. However, Luka already seems very comfortable in her new house, so that he is not immediately leaving.<\/p>\n

Luka Doncic at Lakers for the rest of her career?<\/h2>\n

In an interview with ESPN broadcast this Friday, Donic confirms that he feels good in Los Angeles, to the point where he is already spending his career in the City of Angels. His loyalty goes to his new franchise now, enough to reassure supporters about his future. And Kendrick Perkins took the opportunity to throw himself on the occasion.<\/p>\n

Kendrick Perkins: “The most important player in Lakers? Neither LeBron nor Luka. It's him ”\n\t<\/p><\/div>\n

During a program on ESPN, the former Colossus of the League returned to the future of Doncic. And for him, it seems clear that the player will remain in Los Angeles whatever happens, it doesn't matter if the franchise succeeds in winning the title or not in the years to come. In any case, it had its justification and it should appeal to the supporters.<\/p>\n

\n

Kendrick Perkins<\/strong> : “Luka Doncic will never play another franchise again. The future will tell us. Whether you talk about Jerry West or Magic Johnson, Kareem or Kobe. Once you are at Lakers, you're there for good. There is the Shaq exception, but it was the only one. The reason behind it is that the Lakers are built to win titles, but there is also the show side. Luka will not go anywhere. He will retire as a laker. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Unlikely that Lakers fans very much appreciate Kendrick Perkins, especially seen his lunar statements on LeBron James<\/strong>but they will not come to complain about such an outing. Doncic appreciates the franchise and is already continued on the long term. An extension of the contract will be a first step.<\/p>\n

Luka Doncic at Lakers for the rest of her career? It is quite possible, especially given the recent declarations of the player. But be careful not to get carried away too fast in fans, because everything can change in the NBA.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n
