LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers had so much fun at home Sunday night versus the Houston Rockets.

It’s fair to say the Los Angeles Lakers have slightly underwhelmed to start the 2023-24 NBA regular season.

The Lakers have one victory over a team (Orlando Magic) […]

LeBron James, as painful as it may be to admit, is creeping ever so closely to his retirement, making every one of his remaining game in the NBA must-see for fans who would want nothing less than to take his greatness for granted. And James continues to be a dominant presence on the hardwood; on […]

LeBron James is going to turn 39 years of age on December 30, 2023 — let that sink in for a moment. It’s hard to internalize that James is nearing the end of his illustrious career, but for some, like Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups, they know better than to take the Los […]

Sportsmanship is often promoted by the NBA. Because of this, it is unusual for fights to break out on the NBA hardwood.

Some people enjoy hate-watching sports more than they like watching their favorite team.

In this […]

The Los Angeles Lakers have played 10 games. They’ve won five, each by six points or fewer. They’ve lost five, by an average margin of 10.2 points per game.

When people think of iconic teammates and friends in the NBA, one of the first duos mentioned should be the relationship between Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James and former player Dwyane Wade.
