The moment we've all been waiting for: NBA schedule release. Two months until the season tips off, basketball fans finally know when their favorite teams will play in the 2024-25 season.
For the Lakers, it's going to be quite a season.
LeBron James and Anthony Davis return from the Olympics, trying to get their team back on track after a disappointing finish to last year. They'll do it all under new head coach JJ Redick as the former player takes a stab at his first coaching job.
There's something for everyone in the family, too. James and rookie son Bronny James have the chance to become the first father-son duo to play in the NBA at the same time. When that will happen, who knows, as the Lakers have other things to worry about.
Regardless of how the season goes, they're still the Lakers, an internationally favorite team. Seeing James in the purple and gold is a bucket list for most. And here's how to get tickets for Los Angeles's games this year.
