The Lakers wanted to save money in the Dan Hurley soap opera and paid dearly for it. But this may not be a coincidence for some, since Jeanie Buss would not be in the best financial condition.
It’s a bit of panic at the Lakers today. While the franchise is looking for a replacement for Darvin Ham, Dan Hurley seemed to be the big favorite over the last week, he who has already won two NCAA titles with UConn. A promising candidate but an insufficient offer to attract him, the Angelinos having offered him 11.6 million per season to move to the other side of the country.
Financial problem with the Lakers?
To better situate the offer, Kentucky (NCAA team) offered Hurley 11 million to join their program. It is clear that the Lakers’ offer was insufficient, as they rely too much on their liabilities to hope to attract big names. Or perhaps Jeanie Buss has no choice, she who would not necessarily be very rich according to Eric Pincus.
New affront to come for the Lakers and LeBron? “He doesn’t want to come to this circus”
Many people around the league wonder if the Lakers have the financial resources to compete with the new, much wealthier investors who are buying NBA teams according to Eric Pincus. “Many around the league look at the ownership group at the Lakers and wonder if they can keep pace with the new wave of billionaires investing in NBA franchises. »
When we see the offers from the Angelinos, often stingy in recent years, we can seriously ask ourselves the question. The franchise could certainly give Hurley a little more to convince him, but the front office refused given the end result. In any case, this should not help Jeanie Buss’ reputation in the NBA.
They say she’s ruined😭😂
We can ask ourselves serious questions about the state of the Lakers’ finances, especially after this fiasco in the Dan Hurley soap opera. The rest promises to be complicated for the franchise, which may have to lower its ambitions.
