Gabe Vincent Signs With The Lakers

The Miami Heat were not going to re-sign Gabe Vincent at the price tag the Los Angeles Lakers were willing to put up – and ultimately cashed in to get Vincent.

Los Angeles and Vincent agreed to a three-year, $33 million deal. This will be Vincent’s second team he’s played for in his career.

Gabe Vincent went undrafted in 2018, finally found a home with the Heat, proved himself this season, and has gotten a solid bag.

Rich Paul Didn't Want LeBron James To Warriors Due To Criticism

According to Marc Stein, the Golden State Warriors tried trading for LeBron James. This was very public and very real. However, LeBron James’ agent, Rich Paul, didn’t want it to happen due to the public criticism.

Despite team owners talking and negotiations ramping up rather quickly, the only way the Lakers would move LeBron was by him outright saying it. It’s unknown if James wanted to go to Golden State, but Paul feared the public would clown him for jumping to his fourth team.

So, with all that being said, the highly successful agent asked both teams not to consider any deal. It appears an image investment was made.

LeBron is under contract until 2026-27 unless he declines his option in 2025-26.

Lakers, Warriors Headline National TV Appearances For Next Season

The NBA has released next season’s schedule—the complete schedule, from Christmas games to Martin Luther King Jr. Day games to Rivalry Week to pretty much anything else. With that, fans have discovered how many national games their teams play.

Los Angeles Lakers fans will have 39 nationally televised appearances, the most of any team, with two of those games in the opening week.

Remaining in California, the Golden State Warriors are right behind them with 36 appearances on national TV. That is the second-most for the upcoming season.

Still on the West Coast, for top five teams, fans will see the Phoenix Suns and Dallas Mavericks get 30 appearances each.

Now, transitioning to the East Coast, the Boston Celtics and New York Knicks get 34 appearances each.

So the top five are the Lakers, Warriors, Celtics, Knicks, Suns, and then Mavericks.

For those that don’t know, a national game is a game where it is broadcast on ESPN, TNT, NBA TV, and ABC.
