Nic Claxton fears no man. The Brooklyn Nets big man proved that again during their tilt against the Milwaukee Bucks and former Defensive Player of the Year Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Following Los Angeles Lakers practice on Thursday, LeBron James elaborated on his tweet criticizing Washington Wizards announcer Glenn Consor for his inexcusable call of Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr.’s game-winning shot.

The Los Angeles Lakers made a very smart decision that will please LeBron James and the rest of the roster.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James couldn’t help but laugh at a viral meme video about Malik Monk and his rather forgettable time with the Charlotte Hornets.

In my New Year’s resolutions for the Los Angeles Lakers (and on last week’s episode of Lakers Multiverse), I argued that the Lakers need to accelerate the process of discovering an identity.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Patrick Beverley just loves to annoy and get in the nerves of LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. On Sunday, Pat Bev was back at it again, as he kept taunting LeBron, Talen Horton-Tucker and the whole Lakers with his rather “touchy” gestures. Fortunately, LeBron and Co. already know how to […]

The Los Angeles Lakers season has been filled with a lot of turmoil and ups and downs. On Sunday night, that continued.

DeMar. DeRozan. The Bulls guard has been the ultimate clutch weapon for Chicago this season – and even Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James was left stunned.
