The German guard spent the 2020-21 season with LeBron James and the Lakers, averaging 15.4 points and 5.8 assists per game. Despite a four-year, $84 million offer, Schröder opted to seek more money in free agency, where he eventually signed with the Celtics for $5.9 million.
Point guard Dennis Schröder is returning for a second stint with the Los Angeles Lakers.The German guard spent the 2020-21 season with LeBron James and the Lakers, averaging 15.4 points and 5.8 assists per game. Los Angeles offered him a four-year contract extension worth more than $80 million during the season, but he turned it down to seek more money in free agency.
But Schröder struck out in the market and signed a $5.9 million deal with the Boston Celtics, who then traded him to Houston late last season in a deal for Daniel Theis.His agency announced the deal shortly after Schröder's German national team lost to Spain in the EuroBasket semifinals. Schröder's return leaves the Lakers with a crowded backcourt behind Russell Westbrook, who has survived nearly a full offseason of trade speculation and is due to make $47 million this year after a disappointing first year with his hometown team. Newcomers Patrick Beverley and Lonnie Walker IV and holdovers Kendrick Nunn and Austin Reaves are also on the roster.© 2022 The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.
