“So damn happy to have you back”: LeBron James and NBA Twitter react to Dennis Schroder’s Lakers reunion

Lakers superstar LeBron James welcomes Dennis Schroder back into the squad, sharing his excitement on social media.

It is official, Dennis Schroder is back with the LA Lakers. The 29-year-old signed a one-year, $2.64 million deal, reuniting with LeBron James and Anthony Davis post his debacle in the 2021 playoffs. Nonetheless, the German native looks to right the wrong, seeking redemption.

Dating back to the 2020-21 season, Schroder turned down a 4-year $80 million offer from the Lakers, hoping to demand $100-120 million by the end of the season. Unfortunately, his poor performance in the playoffs resulted in GM Rob Pelinka and co letting him off.

What followed had Schroder sign a one-year, $5.9 million deal with the Celtics, only to be traded further to the Rockets. Not so long ago, the 6ft-guard had voiced his desire to reunite with King James and co, a manifestation that bore fruit.
