A big decision this week for both LeBron James and the Lakers as on August 4th, the team can offer their star player an extension beyond his current deal. But the question grows with the Russell Westbrook saga not resolved, will he take it? And what should the Lakers do if he doesn’t? Should we give up the only draft picks we have left in 2027 and 2029? All this plus we pay tribute to a true basketball legend and storied rival of the Lakers in Bill Russell after his passing at the age of 88. A spirited group chat is in store with Joe Soro from Lakersball.com and John Mikaelian from YouTube on our latest Lakers Fast Break podcast!
