Luka Doncic made it clear from the moment he arrived with the Los Angeles Lakers that his goal is simple: win a championship. And based on how Rob Pelinka has spoken since the season ended, that is exactly what the Lakers are committed to building toward.
“I think every year we're on an infinite cycle to try to improve this team and win championships, and we'll stay committed to that work,” Pelinka said during Doncic's extension press conference. For Luka, hearing that kind of language from the top of the organization is exactly the reassurance he needs.
