Draymond Green is not exactly the most renowned high-flyer in the NBA. This is exactly the reason why more than a few folks were pleasantly surprised when the Golden State Warriors star threw down an eye-popping dunk during Friday night’s 126-85 blowout win against the New Orleans Pelicans. Even Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James […]

The Los Angeles Lakers revamped their roster entering this season, mixing several new stars and role players with their existing ones. But despite that, they’ve been unable to smush the injury bug that’s plagued them for the last year or so. While there haven’t been any serious injuries, even the minor ones are causing problems […]

With LeBron James out with injury, the Los Angeles Lakers were down three with just 7.8 ticks remaining on the clock against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Carmelo Anthony had just made two three-pointers in the last 40 seconds to keep the Lakers within striking distance for this very moment. But it was Russell Westbrook who […]

Anthony Davis (sprained right thumb) is questionable for the Los Angeles Lakers matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers at the Moda Center on Saturday. Frank Vogel provided the “update” during his post-practice media availability on Friday. (“Still a sprained thumb, questionable for tomorrow” were his exact words.) I put “update” in quotes because it’s not […]

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James will be out for at least a week due to an abdominal strain. The Lakers will be extra careful in handling James’ health this season. We know all that really matters is that he’s healthy come the postseason. Still, some Lakers fans might be in a panic as to […]

Lakers star Anthony Davis pays his ultimate respect to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander after another loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Lakers ended up allowing another comeback at the hands of the Thunder, despite leading by as much as 19 points early on. Fans may think that the team will learn its lesson from blowing a […]

The Los Angeles Lakers looked like they were turning the corner after a solid three-game win streak. But with LeBron James on the sidelines with an abdominal strain, they once again found themselves on the wrong side of a comeback against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the second time in their last five games. LeBron James […]

Yikes. Where to even begin. The Oklahoma City Thunder have won two games. Both have come against the Los Angeles Lakers. L.A. held leads of 19 or more in each one. LeBron James played in neither game. Still, the Lakers — the oldest, most accomplished team in the NBA — should beat the league’s youngest […]

The Los Angeles Lakers — who have won five of six games and are just starting to find a rhythm — suffered a setback on Thursday, when it was announced that LeBron James has a strained abdomen and will miss one-to-two weeks, at least. James missed two games last week due to ankle soreness, and […]

As you’ve surely heard by now, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James will miss one to two weeks (at least) with what the team is calling a “rectus abdominis strain” — an upper ab injury. ESPN’s Dave McMenamin reported that LeBron aggravated his abdomen during the Lakers’ win over the Houston Rockets on Tuesday at […]

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James will be out indefinitely with an abdominal strain. The team surprisingly ruled LeBron out for Thursday night’s matchup versus the Oklahoma City Thunder with what they called a “rectus abdominis strain” (upper ab). Rectus abdominis, FYI https://t.co/T64nYB3Glk pic.twitter.com/vKjFa9SHmp — Michael Corvo (@michaelcorvo_) November 4, 2021 The Lakers did not […]

The Los Angeles Lakers will be without LeBron James for Thursday night’s game vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Lakers updated James’ status to OUT for the OKC game on Thursday morning. However, he won’t miss the affair due to the ankle soreness that caused him to miss two games last week — including the […]

LeBron James is now in his 19th NBA season. From his time with the Cleveland Cavaliers all the way to his current season with the Los Angeles Lakers, King James has continued his iconic chalk toss ritual before the start of every game. LeBron’s first chalk toss with LA. 🙌 (via @BenGolliver) pic.twitter.com/EwD2nNJSJJ — House […]

At this point, it has become abundantly clear that Klay Thompson is nearing his much-anticipated return to action. Dubs fans everywhere have gotten very excited about Thompson’s comeback and, as it turns out, even Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is ready to go all-in on the Klay hype train. LeBron came across a now-viral […]

After a rocky start, the Los Angeles Lakers are already righting the ship. Following an uptick in play from Russell Westbrook, blistering shooting from Carmelo Anthony, age-defying theatrics from LeBron James, and All-NBA-caliber two-way ball from Anthony Davis, the Lakers have won five of six games. Of course, it’s not all fixed. The Lakers are […]

When Damian Lillard was weighing his options following the Portland Trail Blazers playoff elimination last June, LeBron James invited him to a meeting on his rooftop in Brentwood. LeBron’s Los Angeles Lakers teammate, Anthony Davis, was also present. This is one of the many fascinating nuggets in Yahoo’s Chris Haynes’ inside report on Lillard’s offseason […]

If there’s one role player who has significantly stepped up for the Los Angeles Lakers, it’s 37-year-old Carmelo Anthony. In his 19th season in the league, Melo is off to a red-hot start and helping the Lakers win close games. L.A. is currently shorthanded with injuries to a number of role players, but Melo has […]

Sometimes, things don’t have to be so complicated. For instance, when the Los Angeles Lakers four active NBA75 members (sorry, Dwight) — LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, Anthony Davis, and Carmelo Anthony — each bring their A-game at home against a lottery team, the Lakers are probably going to win that game. Albeit, barely. The Lakers […]

The Los Angeles Lakers escaped with a two-point victory, 119-117, over a gutsy Houston Rockets squad on Tuesday night at Staples Center. Both teams started the contest with guns ablaze, finishing the first half with a combined 134 points. The game went down to the final miss by Kevin Porter Jr., but it did not […]

The Los Angeles Lakers took on the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night as they looked to improve on what has been a lackluster start to their 2021-22 campaign. LeBron James looked like a man on a mission throughout the contest and at one point, he released some of his anger at the rim with an […]

Channing Frye won Twitter on Tuesday. The former Cleveland Cavaliers big man responded to a tweet about LeBron James carrying him throughout his career. Frye responded in the funniest way possible. Carry deez NUTS! https://t.co/f2nUyNIL6V pic.twitter.com/nvYuVYcvdw — Channing Frye (@channingfrye) October 31, 2021 Frye was a teammate on the Cavaliers with LeBron James for only […]

Scottie Pippen has zero chill in his latest book entitled Unguarded. The Hall of Famer went right at Michael Jordan over his portrayal in The Last Dance, the Netflix docu-series that focused on the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls season. Pippen claimed that although the Bulls’ final season really was as legendary as it was painted in […]

With the NFL Trade Deadline here, Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James sent a message to Cleveland Browns receiver Odell Beckham Jr. After all, LeBron is famously a fan of… well, outside of being a frontrunner, he probably also likes teams from his home stat. Let’s digress. Here’s the superstar’s tweet to the Browns star, […]

As expected, the Los Angeles Lakers season has already been a roller-coaster. Eventful, compelling, ever-changing, mildly successful. Understandably, they look like a group developing chemistry, learning schemes, navigating injuries (including LeBron James), and finding a groove. They’ve suffered three ugly losses, pulled out two gritty wins, and, most recently, posted two encouraging performances against lottery […]

Call your health insurance company, Jeanie Buss. The Los Angeles Lakers have been on a little roll lately after winning four of their last five games, but things could change ahead of their game against the Houston Rockets on Tuesday. The Lakers beat the Rockets at home on Sunday, and the two teams will have […]

The Los Angeles Lakers secured their fourth win of the season on Sunday after defeating the Houston Rockets, 95-85, in Staples Center. LeBron James and Co. came out with a relatively impressive performance in the victory and it prompted quite a reaction from Rockets head coach Stephen Silas. After the game, Silas admitted that he’s […]

The Tennessee Titans recently received some concerning news about Derrick Henry’s injury status that could pretty much put their season in jeopardy. Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has caught wind of Henry’s current situation and he’s taken to Instagram to share his thoughts on what could be a season-ending injury for the Titans running […]

Despite the marvelous things he’s done over the past few years, there are still a lot of people who continue to doubt LeBron James. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar has now sent a strong warning for his doubters after leading LA to their second straight win on Sunday against the Houston Rockets. At 36, there’s […]

If you happened to notice LeBron James sitting in the stands at Staples Center on Sunday night — no it wasn’t the Los Angeles Lakers star time-traveling — thought I wouldn’t put it past him, considering his ability to turn back the clock. However, you wouldn’t be blamed for being spooked by the eerie (and hilarious) […]

Anything is possible in Tinseltown, home of the best special effects experts on the planet. Could it be that the alleged doppelganger of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James that appeared during Sunday’s home game against the Houston Rockets was a Hollywood masterpiece? Whatever the case may be, James has apparently seen what had Twitter […]

The Los Angeles Lakers, the oldest team in the NBA, believe their collective wisdom, experience, and talent will outweigh any mileage concerns. On Sunday, in their 95-85 win over the Houston Rockets — and not for the first time this season at Staples Center — two Lakers future Hall of Famers, LeBron James and Carmelo […]

It’s quite surprising that in a Los Angeles Lakers roster stacked with future Hall of Famers, it’s Carmelo Anthony who’s shining the brightest. The man was fighting to stay in the NBA just a few years ago. Now, he’s risen as one of the most important pieces in the Lakers’ quest for another title. From […]

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James was both playing on the court and watching on the bleachers as a fan during Sunday’s contest with the Houston Rockets. How did he do it? Time travel. All jokes aside, LeBron and an apparent doppelganger or look-alike went viral online after they were spotted by several viewers at […]

After a lethargic start to the season, it looks like the Los Angeles Lakers are rounding into form. They have now won four of their last five games after beating the Houston Rockets on Sunday night. But with a lineup as deep as Johnny Cash’s voice, the Lakers are still tinkering with their lineup combinations. […]

Spooky SZN is always an interesting time for NBA fans. Why, you ask? Because once Halloween hits, the players channel their inner children and dress up in costumes! Of course, since these are multi-millionaire NBA players we’re talking about, they go absolutely nuts with their fits, rivalling those of professional cosplayers at times. With that […]

Someone needs to check LeBron James’ birth certificate. Either the Los Angeles Lakers star is much younger than he’s claiming to be or he’s secretly related to the ageless Tom Brady. Check out this irrefutable evidence as the Lakers star raced past Houston Rockets rookie Jalen Green, who’s nearly half his age, and finished it […]

The now-iconic tradition of LeBron James Halloween parties was joined by his Los Angeles Lakers teammates, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook. Superstars of the Lakers came correct, with some truly amazing costumes. As reported by Ballislife.com on Twitter, James came in dressed as Freddy Krueger from the legendary horror franchise A Nightmare On Elm Street. […]

It’s spooky SZN in the NBA, and you know what that means! Our favorite NBA players get to be kids for a day and dress up like children going trick-or-treating! Well, not quite: while many NBA players do put on a costume for Halloween, some take it a step further. Case in point: Los Angeles […]

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers have already been dealing with the injury bug early on in the season. In fact, a few of their key contributors haven’t even touched the floor yet this season. Trevor Ariza was ruled out for 1-2 months prior to season start due to necessary ankle surgery. Kendrick Nunn […]
