House

Trades

According to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, Lonnie Walker IV signed a one-year, $6.5 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers after the San Antonio Spurs withdrew their qualifying offer to him.

Contract

Currently, Lonnie Walker IV is a member of the Los Angeles Lakers. On July 6, 2022, he agreed to a $6.5 million one-year deal with LA. Walker wasn’t a particularly well-known player in the NBA when he signed, but his efforts have undoubtedly benefited the Lakers.

Walker is a free agent who might consider a contract extension after his first one-year deal. That would, though, depend on how far the Lakers advance and how consistently the young player appears to be a valuable team member.
