My guess is that number is around 15 million per. They also don't have to let him walk for nothing if they decide not to match.
He isn't going to get 15 mil per year this early in his career. Now you could talk me into a situation where maybe they find a S&T partner. That's the only way he is not a Laker. But he isn't going to get some massive deal off of such a small body of work.
