JJ Reddick hints that the Lakers can expect LeBron James and Luka Doncic to return from the injured list soon.

Luka Doncic put up his third 40-point game of the young NBA season in the Los Angeles Lakers' NBA Cup win over the Memphis Grizzlies.

Luka Doncic reaching the 40-point mark in a game is becoming a common theme through the early weeks of this season.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has not played in a game this season while dealing with a right sciatica injury.

At least one NBA executive believes Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves is playing his way into a major raise while LeBron James remains sidelined by injury.

Luka Doncic had 44 points, 12 rebounds and six assists in his return after a three-game absence and the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Memphis Grizzlies 117-112 on Friday night in the opening game of the NBA Cup for each team.

There is reportedly a sense around the NBA that the Lakers may not be sold on Deandre Ayton as their long-term solution at the center position.
