Interestingly, former Lakers and Warriors players, both reunited on the new team

The free agent trading market for the 2025 off-season has begun. We can see that many players have left the team they are currently playing for and play for the new team next season. Some players leave voluntarily just to seek bigger contracts or get more opportunities to perform. Some players were forced to trade and sent away by the team because they could not meet the team's requirements.

We can see that on the first day of the free agent trading market in the 2025 offseason, Lakers and Golden State Warriors players are reuniting on other teams. The Dallas Mavericks signed Tangiero Russell with a two-year, $13 million contract, which also brought Tangiero Russell back with former Lakers teammate Anthony Davis.

In the middle of the 2024-25 season, the Lakers exchanged Tangiero Russell for the Brooklyn Nets' Dorian Finney Smith. Now, Dorian Finney Smith rejects the Los Angeles Lakers' price cut contract and chooses to sign a four-year, $53 million contract with the Rockets. For this reason, the Lakers management also said that they would not regret the decision to leave Dorian Finney Smith due to the price reduction.

There are two former Los Angeles Lakers players reunited, namely Jordan Clarkson and Josh Hart. According to reports, Jordan Clarkson has reached a buyout agreement with the Utah Jazz, and he will wait for the clarification period to renew a good contract with the Knicks. Joshhart has posted a post to celebrate, reuniting with former teammate Jordan Clarkson in the New York Knicks.

Former Golden State Warriors player Jordan Poole, reunited with Kevin Rooney in the New Orleans Pelicans. Kevin Rooney wants to return to the Golden State Warriors, and the team hopes he will go back. However, in recent years, he has not gained trust in the Golden State Warriors and has difficulty getting the opportunity to perform, which has prevented him from getting the opportunity to raise his salary.

So, he chose to leave the Golden State Warriors and signed a two-year, $16 million contract with the New Orleans Pelicans. There is no way, the same annual salary of $8 million, the Bay Area tax is too high, and the salary is not much, so leaving the Golden State Warriors and joining the Pelicans is the best choice for Kevin Rooney's life.

Kevin Rooney played for the Golden State Warriors for ten years, helping the team win three championships. Now, joining the Pelicans to reunite with their good brother Jordan Poole in the New Orleans Pelicans is also favored by the outside world. They can lead the Pelicans to become bigger and stronger, and become a regular player in the playoffs in the next few seasons.
