Less than a year after winning an NBA title, the Lakers will try to become the first seventh seed or lower in league history to win a league title.

With an NBA playoff play-in game looming against the Warriors, the Lakers’ LeBron James argued that Steph Curry is the league’s MVP this season.

Kobe Bryant always tried to play through pain. Vanessa Bryant has embodied that attitude as she honors Kobe’s legacy while overcoming her grief.

Those that knew Kobe Bryant well believed his Hall of Fame speech would have been as unique as his on-court performances.

Magic Johnson and others have called Kobe Bryant the greatest Laker of all time. But other Lakers greats have expressed less certainty.

With about 4,000 fans in attendance, LeBron James helped the Los Angeles Lakers unveil their 2019-20 NBA championship banner at Staples Center.

The Celtics announced that All-Star guard Jaylen Brown will miss the rest of the 2021-21 season after doctors determined he will need surgery.

After already missing a combined 21 games this season because a high right ankle sprain, can Lakers absorb another long-term absence by LeBron James?

LeBron James said he might ‘never get back to 100%’ after returning from his high right ankle sprain in the Lakers’ 110-106 loss to the Kings.
