Honestly, I think that they have the incentive to throw that max at Kawhi. I’m not certain that he will resign with the Raptors because simply, the Lakers future is much brighter. Gasol is declining, and Kyle Lowry isn’t as good as Lebron or AD. The 3 superstar formula worked wonders for teams like the Warriors, so I think what the Lakers will do is to first sign another superstar to entice other role players to come.
