On August 3, the NBA entered the offseason. Doncic and the Lakers successfully renewed their contract, and the two sides reached a three-year, $165 million contract. Many media people analyzed Doncic's new contract, and he is eligible to sign a four-year, US$117 million contract in 2028. The specific situation of this new contract of Doncic is: 2026-27 season: $51 million; 2027-28 season: $55.1 million; 2028-29 season: $59.2 million; totaling $165.3 million. The key new contract allowed Doncic to avoid becoming a free agent next summer and canceled his 2026-27 player option in place of a new contract, according to Shams' follow-up reports.

Then famous reporter Michael Scotto updated social media to add details about Doncic's contract renewal. It wrote: "Lakes star Doncic has signed a three-year renewal contract worth $165 million with the team, of which the third year is the player option. The renewal is negotiated by Bill Duffy of WME Basketball. By 2028, Doncic will be eligible to sign a new five-year contract worth $417 million."

Famous salary expert Bobby Marks also talked about Doncic's contract situation: "Doncic's player options for the 2028-29 season are crucial because by then his age will be 10 years old. If he becomes a free agent, he will be eligible to sign a five-year, estimated value of $417 million with the Lakers."

It is worth mentioning that if Doncic is not traded by the Mavericks, he is eligible to sign a five-year, $315 million super maximum salary renewal with the Mavericks this summer. But as he was traded to the Lakers, he lost the qualification to sign a super maximum salary contract extension.
