What to expect

The Lakers are the most popular team in Los Angeles, and this is the place to get all the news surrounding them. In our Lakers newsletter, we provide previews of upcoming games, a look back at what has happened in the season, a closer look at the players, and links to the best stories by The Times’ crew of NBA reporters.

We’ll come to your inbox about once a week, so if you love the Lakers, this is a quick and thorough way to keep track of your team.

Your host

My name is Dan Woike, and I’m the Lakers beat writer for The Times. I previously covered the NBA for the paper and have written about the league for over a decade.

I’m originally from Chicago, I think “Hoop Dreams“ is the best sports movie ever, love deep dish (but would rather have some amazing Chicago thin crust) and, despite thinking I once was cool, now mostly listen to music that can be best described as relaxing (check out the song of the week at the end of the newsletter).

I’ve covered the NBA for nearly a decade now. If you have good restaurant recommendations near Long Beach, a favorite beer you’re drinking or a basketball take you just have to get off your chest, you can find me on Twitter, or email me at [email protected].
