Source: Lakers retain Rui Hachimura, add Gabe Vincent, others

The Los Angeles Lakers are bringing back restricted free agent Rui Hachimura on a three-year, $51 million deal, sources told ESPN's Dave McMenamin.

The Lakers also added guard Gabe Vincent on a three-year, $33 million contract, a source said.

Hachimura, 25, was a restricted free agent. His return aligns with Lakers vice president of basketball operations and general manager Rob Pelinka's stated intention at the start of the offseason to "keep our core of young guys together" as the franchise pieces together its roster for 2023-24 and beyond.

Hachimura's acquisition in late January was a precursor to a flurry of activity by the Lakers front office at the trade deadline.
