Live broadcast, February 10th today, TA reporter Joe Vardon wrote an article about the transaction before the transaction deadline this year.
When talking about Owen, the reporter wrote: “I think Owen will go to the Lakers next season. Owen wants a four-year or five-year top salary contract. On Yogueta, the contract will be renewed with Lone Ranger, which will be $0.273 billion for 5 years. But Owen said he didn’t want to renew the contract at present.
“In addition to the Lone Ranger, Owen is qualified to sign a 4-year 0.21 billion-year contract with other teams. However, the Lakers could not fully provide this contract. They could give Owen a contract with an annual salary of more than 30 million dollars. In addition, teams with salary space to sign Owen include piston, magic, Pacers, pioneers and Spurs. But they want it. They need it in reconstruction. They already have excellent defenders like Lillard. In other words, it may not be possible to get a top-salary contract from other teams outside the Lone Ranger.”
According to previous reports, Owen wants to renew the contract with a top salary of 0.1985 billion dollars for 4 years. Before July 1 this year, Owen is eligible to renew the contract with Lone Ranger for 2 years and 78.6 million dollars.
