The Los Angeles Lakers renounced the free agent rights to over 10 ***** ets on Wednesday, but some stick out more than others.
Among the contributors who are officially no longer a part of the Lakers' organization is a generational 6-foot-11 Hall of Fame center and NBA champion.
"The Los Angeles Lakers have officially renounced the free agent rights to LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard, Dion Waiters, Luke Kennard, Marcus Smart, Maxi Kleber, Nick Smith Jr, Jared Dudley, Avery Bradley, Jaxson Hayes, Markieff Morris, and Wayne Ellington," HoopsHype's Michael Scotto wrote on X/Twitter.
With Howard retiring from basketball in March, there was never a scenario in which the 40-year-old would suit up for the Lakers again. Still, Scotto's report makes it crystal clear that the two parties are going their separate ways in early July.
