Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder never forgets. Tell that to Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving. After their highly publicized on-court spat last April, Schroder is now saying he will never wear Kyrie shoes ever again. Apparently, the Lakers’ explosive point guard has around 30-40 Kyries, but he wants to give them all away. He […]

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Dennis Schröder returned from his second stint in the NBA’s health and safety protocols on Saturday, and he gave a couple of testy and confounding responses when asked about his COVID-19-related absence.

Fittingly, the Los Angeles Lakers are entering the final weekend of the regular season with uncertainty surrounding LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

The Los Angeles Lakers were already down LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Dennis Schroder for Wednesday’s matchup against the Houston Rockets.

In his pre-game Zoom, Lakers head coach Frank added one more key name to the injury list for the regular-season finale: Alex Caruso. […]

The Los Angeles Lakers are accustomed to relying on two players to deliver in the clutch. However, in the team’s wildest and gutsiest win of 2020-21 — a grueling 101-99 overtime triumph over the New York Knicks at Staples Center — it wasn’t Anthony Davis nor LeBron James who made the two biggest plays; it […]

Los Angeles Lakers big man Montrezl Harrell is known to have a very active presence on social media. He has opened up about a number of issues online, including his struggles dealing with the death of his grandmother from a year ago. Trez even drew support from the Lakers owner herself, Jeanie Buss, who wanted […]

Anthony Davis had a basic explanation for Los Angeles Lakers’ costly loss to Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers at the Moda Center. According to Davis, it wasn’t Dame Time, nor a lack of healthy talent that partially caused the 106-111 defeat, which officially dropped the depleted Lakers (37-30) into the no. 7 seed […]

Things aren’t exactly shaping up as expected for the Chicago Bulls — especially considering how they went all in at the trade deadline. With their playoff hopes quickly vanishing, now appears to be the time for the Bulls to look ahead for the upcoming season. Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic will still be Chicago’s one-two […]

“Stay patient, man. Missed so much it can only be up from there. It’s like anything else. You go through those slumps. In real life, not in just basketball. You just try to get back to basics with stuff. Me personally, I knew I needed to get in the gym more … just gotta keep […]

If LeBron James is going to lead the Los Angeles Lakers to an 18th NBA championship, he may be forced to do so while enduring pain along the way.

On Friday, in Game 63 of the 2020-21 NBA regular season, the Los Angeles Lakers, for the first time, took the floor with Dennis Schroder, LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Andre Drummond together in the starting lineup. L.A. fell in disappointing fashion to the Sacramento Kings, but at least they could be encouraged by the […]

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Dennis Schröder may have revealed that he and LeBron James are the only two members of their team to not receive a COVID-19 vaccination.

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Dennis Schroder is set to miss at least 10-14 days due to the NBA’s health and safety protocols, according to Shams Charania and Bill Oram of The Athletic. With just eight games left, this means Schroder could miss the remainder of the regular season. Schroder missed Sunday’s 121-114 loss to the […]

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James—who has missed the past 20 games with a high right ankle sprain—will return to the court Friday against the Sacramento Kings at Staples Center. The Lakers upgraded LeBron’s status to “available” around 5:45 p.m., shortly before head coach Frank Vogel was set to Zoom with the media. “He’s been […]

Anthony Davis and the Los Angeles Lakers haven’t clinched anything yet. Following the team’s third loss in four games — an uninspired and bricky 116-107 drubbing against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday — Anthony Davis isn’t taking anything for granted. “We control our own destiny. We have to start playing with a sense of desperation,” […]

On Monday night, ESPN’s Dave McMenamin included this notable update on the status of LeBron James in his recap following the Los Angeles Lakers’ 114-103 victory over the Orlando Magic. “James could return as soon as this week, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. James has looked ‘strong’ in […]

“Do your sh*t, Dennis.” According to Dennis Schröder, that’s how LeBron James encourages the Los Angeles Lakers point guard to keep his foot on the gas — at all times, ideally, regardless of who’s on the court. On Monday against the Orlando Magic at Amway Center, Schröder did his sh*t, once again, driving the Lakers’ […]

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Dennis Schröder is sitting on valuable information. On Monday, after leading L.A. to a 114-103 victory over the Orlando Magic, the point guard claimed to know precisely when LeBron James will make his long-awaited return to the Lakers’ starting lineup. Being a good company man, though, he refused to spill […]

Getting warmer. The Los Angeles Lakers haven’t set a target date for LeBron James to return to the lineup, and the organization has provided few details on his recovery. Officially, the message was more of the same from Frank Vogel on Monday. In his pregame Zoom with reporters, the coach was asked to give an […]

For the most part, the Los Angeles Lakers have hung tough since LeBron James sprained his ankle on March 20. They’ve gone 7-11 over the 18 games, all of which besides the last two — both losses to the Dallas Mavericks — came without Anthony Davis. There have been silver linings during this undermanned stretch. […]

LeBron James may have been on the sidelines for the Los Angeles Lakers’ tilt against the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday night, but Dennis Schroder made sure that his team wasn’t going to miss their superstar too much. Schroder came up with a huge jam early in the fourth period vs the Mavs and it looked […]

Dennis Schroder has been a member of the Los Angeles Lakers for less than a year after being traded by the Oklahoma City Thunder last November. And yet, he’s already shown loyalty to the Lakers, even defending his team against a fan in an unlikely place – the video game live streaming site Twitch. Apparently, […]

Anthony Davis is back. Rusty, no doubt. But back. Following a two-month absence, Davis made his long-awaited return to the Los Angeles Lakers’ starting lineup on Thursday. Davis said he felt “100 percent healthy” on Wednesday, yet Frank Vogel kept his word and capped his workload at 17 first-half minutes in L.A.’s 115-110 loss to […]

Even with Anthony Davis back in the lineup, Dennis Schroder and the Los Angeles Lakers still succumbed to the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday, 115-110.

Dennis Schroder was the MVP for the Los Angeles Lakers in Saturday’s wacky 127-115 OT victory over the extremely shorthanded Utah Jazz at Staples Center (with fans in attendance, for the second time).

The victory moved the Lakers […]

Boy, oh boy is it a good time to be a fan of the New York Knicks. Julius Randle has blossomed into a legitimate two-way star, RJ Barrett is right behind him, and the rest of the team is really buying into head coach Tom Thibodeau’s rough-and-tumble defensive philosophy. There remains one big flaw, though: […]

On their Monday night encounter, the New York Knicks had their eyes peeled as they observed a particular player of the Los Angeles Lakers not named LeBron James who is expected to make a significant buzz in the upcoming offseason. Head coach Tom Thibodeau and his staff are eyeing to make a run for Lakers […]

On Saturday, the Los Angeles Lakers put together their best performance in the 11 games since LeBron James joined Anthony Davis on the injury list, shocking the Brooklyn Nets at Barclays Center.

The Los Angeles Lakers competed against the Brooklyn Nets in a national TV affair on Saturday night.

Through the first half of Saturday’s potential NBA Finals preview at Barclays Center, Los Angeles Lakers point guard Dennis Schroder kept pace with Brooklyn Nets All-Star Kyrie Irving, step-for-step.
