Lakers and NBA fans in general will get a quick view of two of the league’s long-time greats when LeBron James and the Lakers open the regular season against Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors on Oct. 21 at Crypto.com Arena, people not authorized to speak publicly on the matter told The Times on Friday.
The game will be nationally televised on NBC and it will give Lakers fans a chance to see Luka Doncic’s new and trimmed body.
According to those people, the Lakers will play the Houston Rockets and newly-acquired Kevin Durant on Christmas Day at home, one of five games on that holiday.
