As a celebrity style editor, I’ve seen entryways play with almost every tone under the sun. From pistachio green to dusty pinks and grays, the world’s most famous figures are not shy of experimenting with color in the first rooms of their home. With that in mind, however, I admit, I was previously quick to overlook the power of a black and white entryway. That was, at least, until I saw LeBron and Savannah James’s monochromatic space. With black and white hallway ideas being so classic, I often categorized this color combination as chic but safe, meaning that while they…
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James has a lot to think about this offseason—mainly whether or not he’d like to play another year—but it seems like one thing he will not be thinking about is pay. A detailed report from The Athletic’s Sam Amick and Jovan Buha released Friday revealed that, although James was willing to take a salary hit last offseason to help the Lakers’ roster, the 40-year-old star is “not expected” to consider such a sacrifice should he play in 2025, per league sources. In July of 2024, James left around $2.7 million on the table when officially…
The Los Angeles Lakers’ 2024-25 season concluded abruptly with a 4-1 first-round playoff loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. A significant factor in their early exit was their lack of size and interior defense, which was exploited by the Timberwolves throughout the series. Rudy Gobert, in particular, dominated the paint, recording a playoff career-high 27 points and 24 rebounds in Game 5. Doncic, acquired midseason from the Dallas Mavericks in a blockbuster trade, delivered strong offensive performances, averaging 30.2 points, 7.0 rebounds and 5.8 assists in the five games against Minnesota. However, the Lakers’ adopted a center-less basketball style after the…
Despite turning their 2024-25 season around in one of the most dramatic ways in NBA history —thanks to an unexpected blockbuster trade for Luka Doncic — the Los Angeles Lakers were knocked out of the playoffs last night by the Minnesota Timberwolves. The series ended with a 4-1 score in favor of the Wolves. For Los Angeles, their goal since winning the 2020 title has been to chase that same glory at any cost. You could see this in their aggressive effort to overhaul the roster, mixing a patchwork of former stars and role players. With LeBron James getting older…
There’s uncertainty surrounding the Los Angeles Lakers’ organization. With LeBron James considering retirement this summer, there’s no telling which direction Los Angeles is headed. Still, that didn’t stop Yahoo Sports’ Tom Haberstroh from predicting that the Lakers will cut ties with Austin Reaves and acquire a Memphis Grizzlies star forward in free agency. “Will the Grizzlies fully smash the reset button after a disastrous finish to the season that included GM Zach Kleiman firing Taylor Jenkins right before the postseason and the team getting swept in the first round,” Haberstroh wrote Thursday. “We’ll see what happens this offseason with Ja…
Arsenal are in talks over the signing of AS Roma centre-back Evan Ndicka ahead of the summer, according to Italian outlet La Gazzetta dello Sport via Siamo La Roma. Ndicka has been an indispensable figure in the Giallorossi’s backline this season, featuring in all 34 Serie A games that have caught the attention of the Gunners. His combativeness at the back has been pivotal to Claudio Ranieri’s 18-game unbeaten run in the league, and the defender is also in contention for the Serie A team of the season. Citing La Gazzetta dello Sport, Siamo La Roma reports that Arsenal have…
The Los Angeles Lakers are gearing up for another critical offseason, with the clock ticking on LeBron James’ legendary career. As the NBA’s all-time leading scorer nears retirement, the pressure is on GM Rob Pelinka to construct a championship-caliber roster. One name emerging in trade discussions is Derrick Lively II, the Dallas Mavericks’ explosive big man who previously thrived alongside Luka Doncic.

After enduring a brutal elimination in round 1 of the playoffs, the LA Lakers will have to take a deep dive into hindsight and figure out where it all went wrong for them. While it goes without saying that the Lakers have been wanting a Center for a long time, and in the end, the absence of someone of that nature proved to be costly for the Lakers. However, the front office will be expected to act upon it and could bring in competent individuals to curb the frailties. Subsequently, the flow of assertions and rumors has begun in the…
Anthony Edwards did not have his best game of the series in Thursday’s Game 6 matchup between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Los Angeles Lakers. In fact, the same could be said for the Wolves in general after they collectively shot just 40.4% from the field and 14.9% from distance on Thursday night. Nevertheless, Minnesota was still able to close the series out with a massive win at Crypto.com Arena, 103-96, thereby putting an end to LeBron James and the Lakers’ season. A video of Edwards in the aftermath of Minnesota’s series-clinching win is currently making its rounds on social…
LeBron James only has so much time left in the NBA, believe it or not. He may opt to spend it somewhere other than the Los Angeles Lakers. The Athletic reported on Friday that James isn’t locked in to sticking in L.A. He’s got a player option for 2025-26, and he could choose to use it. Here’s what The Athletic wrote: “So, might James think about finishing his career elsewhere in pursuit of a fifth ring? When posed that question, both league sources close to James and team sources would not rule that possibility out. And that was before the…
