Latest news and updates about the Lakers
It’s trade deadline week. You know, that special time of year where the actual basketball games being played seem to fall into the backdrop of wider league news regarding player movement. Today’s involved Danny Ainge adding a new skyscraper to the Salt Lake skyline, beards suddenly becoming stylish in The Land, and the leaders of […]
The Lakers closed their road trip in style, dominating the Nets from start to finish on Tuesday en route to a 125-109 win. The Lakers scored 45 points in the first quarter, 69 in the first half and built up a 39-point lead before the break. Predictably, the second half was little more than conditioning […]
I hope everybody’s having a good evening out there. Here’s a random clip for you as the floor is now yours:

The Lakers started a trend in the preseason with poor third quarter play, which has continued into the regular season. Early in the campaign, Lakers head coach JJ Redick called it out and got it fixed. But, like a monster in a horror film, those woes are back and as bad as ever. During their […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers and LA Clippers are in the final stages of agreeing to a deal that would swap 11-time All-Star James Harden and 26-year-old Darius Garland. Reports of the trade originally broke last night with Chris Haynes stating this morning that both sides are motivated to get a deal completed “relatively soon.” It’s unclear […]
Finally home. The Brooklyn Nets closed out their five game road trip with a Sunday night tilt against the Eastern Conference leading Detroit Pistons. The Nets were never in it and got stomped out by the Pistons 130-77. A loss is a loss, I guess? The opponent tonight is trying to break into that contenders […]
The Lakers are a flawed team. That’s not even a hot take. After an early exit out of the playoffs last season, this team looks headed for a similar, perhaps even identical, path. In theory, the trade deadline should offer a perfect solution to their problems. However, the Lakers do not sound like a team […]

For fans eager to see Austin Reaves back on the court, the last week has been frustrating.

The Lakers always find themselves near the center of trade rumors regardless of the state of the team or the situation. This year, there’s plenty of reason for them to be surrounded by rumors. A flawed roster and a competitive Western Conference have upped the pressure on the Lakers to make a move. Will that […]

Postgame press conferences for head coach JJ Redick have begun to sound like something of a broken record. While this could apply to multiple aspects of the Lakers as currently constructed, this time, it’s regarding their shooting. On Sunday, the Lakers had their latest stinker from beyond the arc in their loss to the Knicks, […]
The Los Angeles Lakers visited MSG and returned home without a win. Too bad, it turns out they ran into the hottest team in the league—that is, your New York Knicks. Here’s a lot of what was said before and after yesterday’s affair. Mike Brown On practice time and recent changes: “We’ve had a chance […]
At Madison Square Garden, the Knicks (31*-18) shook off a middling first half, outscored the Lakers 60–44 after halftime, and survived 15 lead changes to claim their sixth straight win, 112–100. From the jump, L.A. attacked home plate and New York tried their luck from the outfield. The strategy showed promise with the first two […]
The Knicks (30*-18), riding a five-game win streak, welcome the Lakers (29-18) to Madison Garden Tonight. A national audience will tune in to see Luka Dončić and LeBron James, leaders of a Los Angeles team that scores brilliant and defends much less so. Expect a tight game, which might be LeBron’s last appearance at MSG. […]
The Lakers will have another player besides Luka Dončić representing them at the All-Star game. LeBron James wasn’t named an All-Star starter, but he made the team as a reserve. This extends LeBron’s consecutive streak of All-Star appearances to 22, which is an NBA record. LeBron not getting voted in by the fans was certainly […]
Ahead of a Los Angeles Lakers road tilt against the New York Knicks on NBC/Peacock Sunday, Maria Taylor, Vince Carter, Carmelo Anthony, and Tracy McGrady announced the NBA’s 14 All-Star reserve picks exactly two weeks ahead of the 2026 All-Star Game. The All-Star Game is slated to tip off at the LA Clippers’ home arena, Intuit Dome, on Feb. 15. Unfortunately, 23-year-old Chicago Bulls point guard Josh Giddey was omitted from the bunch. League coaches vote for All-Star reserves wholly with...
UPDATE: The Lakers are being really cautious with Austin Reaves. For the second consecutive game, Reaves has been downgraded to out after being listed as questionable coming into the day.
