The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly expected by rival teams to "make a run" at signing Brook Lopez in free agency, NBA insider Jake Fischer reported on Saturday.

LeBron James showcased impressive efforts throughout the 2024-25 NBA season. Alongside Luka Doncic, he led the Lakers to the postseason. However, their efforts fell short against the Minnesota Timberwolves in the round 1 playoff series.

The Los Angeles Lakers don't have to wait any longer for LeBron James' decision regarding his contract status for the 2025-26 campaign.

The Los Angeles Lakers made the bold decision to trade up almost 20 spots in the second round of the 2025 NBA Draft. The trade up to 36 netted them Adou Thiero, a forward from Arkansas.

The Lakers helped address a need to increase their athleticism at the wing by acquiring Arkansas' Adou Thiero, the No. 36 overall pick of the NBA draft.
