Out of the free agent signings the Los Angeles Lakers made this past summer, Deandre Ayton has stood out as the best addition thanks to his strong two-way play through the first part of the 2025-26 season.
Luka Doncic made his return to the Los Angeles Lakers lineup on Sunday against the Philadelphia 76ers after the birth of his second daughter. He had 31 points, 15 rebounds and 11 assists in the win, but he wasn’t the story of the game.
Some people just have to learn the hard way. During a recent Lakers vs. 76ers game, a courtside heckler decided to take a shot at LeBron James, and let’s just say it didn’t go as planned.
Sometimes its hard to fathom LeBron James’ longevity. He’s been in the NBA for 23 seasons now, with the spotlight still on him. Every game he plays is historic, and every point he scores adds to his legacy as the league’s all-time leading scorer.
Christmas and the NBA go hand-in-hand. The day serves for the top hoops league in the world, like Thanksgiving for the NFL. However, while the Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys are perpetual Thanksgiving participants, the NBA has mixed up the matchups and the teams throughout the years.
Deandre Ayton’s arrival in Los Angeles has brought tons of positives on the court. In a basketball sense, he’s been a near perfect fit as a pick-and-roll partner for all of the Lakers’ ballhandlers, whether it’s Luka Dončić, Austin Reaves or LeBron James.
At 16-6 (as of Dec. 6), the Los Angeles Lakers sit tied for third place in the vaunted Western Conference. The Lakers were widely expected to be a team struggling to even break into the top-six of the conference, as many projected Los Angeles to be a play-in team at best.
Steve Nash has sparked a wave of curiosity across the NBA world after a new message tied to his podcast with LeBron James sent fans scrambling for answers.
Most of the time, things in the NBA go as people expect. Here and there, though, some players, for one reason or another, just don't meet expectations, whether it's due to injury or other situational pitfalls.
Los Angeles Lakers star forward LeBron James is used to making history. The four-time MVP, who turns 41 in just over three weeks, is the NBA's all-time leading scorer and has played the most seasons of anyone in NBA history at 23.
This year, Austin Reaves is one of the most underpaid players in the league. He is playing like a top-20 player, and he is getting paid like a top-10 role player.
The Los Angeles Lakers’ final stop of their road trip was all about LeBron James as he put together his first real LeBron-like performance of the season.
Los Angeles Lakers star guard Luka Doncic has been having a pretty good year, both on and off the court. Now in his first full season with the Lakers after a shocking midseason trade this February, Doncic leads the NBA with 35.3 points per game and has been the best player on a Lakers team that is second in the Western Conference.
With the Los Angeles Lakers closing out the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday night, 112-108, it came with a solid defensive effort, with even head coach JJ Redick shouting out center Deandre Ayton for his performance.
Austin Reaves must decide on his future with the Los Angeles Lakers after the season concludes. He is putting up nearly 30 points and seven assists per game and has stepped into a larger role for the Lakers this year, which could complicate his contract talks in the summer.
Austin Reaves had an excellent highlight with Rui Hachimura during the Los Angeles Lakers’ matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday night. Reaves is going through the fifth season of his NBA career, all with the Lakers.
First, the Philadelphia 76ers sent Draymond Green packing midway through the game. Now their game against the LA Lakers has another casualty. Jake LaRavia left midgame after a nasty run-in.
