Knecht gets really excited with him and LeBron James in the Lakers: "We could stay together 5 or 10 years"

We don't know if Dalton Knecht will be staying much longer with the Los Angeles Lakers. The rookie, who had little impact in the playoffs, was almost out of the L.A. team at the end of the last trade deadline in February when he was traded to the Charlotte Hornets for Mark Williams. Ultimately, the center didn't pass the medical examination with the LA team, and now it seems the shooter sees himself in the Angelino franchise in the long term.

In fact, in statements to TMZ Sports, Knecht stated that he and LeBron James could easily “continue together in L.A. for another five or more years.”

The player was approached at Los Angeles airport a few days ago and made it clear that his desire is to continue wearing purple and gold. Additionally, he envisions a prolonged future alongside '23' in the Lakers squad.

“He says he can play another five or ten years,” Knecht commented on his teammate, the NBA's all-time leading scorer. “So, 'Bron and I could continue together for another five or ten years. Why not?”.
