"Yessir! So damn happy to have you back! You are like that! LFG!" LeBron shared a supporting message on his Instagram account.
"This past year didn't feel right… I felt misunderstood and nobody really knew the story," Schroder wrote himself when the news broke out.
"I'm coming back to the biggest organization to make sh*t right! I hope Laker Nation going to support me every single day! I will give everything I have every single day! It's an honor to play for the Lakers. Can't wait to get started!"
Schroder averaged 15.4 points, 5.8 assists, and 3.3 rebounds in 2020-21 when represented the Purple & Gold jersey for the first time.
Those numbers are a bit deceiving, as Schroder wasn't himself in the playoffs, where LeBron James-led Lakers were eliminated in the first round by the Phoenix Suns.
Though, seems that the 29-year-old German is more than ready to prove his worth again.
Schroder has the sixth-highest scoring average in FIBA EuroBasket 2022, scoring 21.6 points per game, shooting 43.1% from the field and 28.6% from beyond the arc. He led his country to EuroBasket Top 4.
