NBA, wrath LeBron James: “Why do we have to go all the way to Milwaukee?”

Only away games for the yellow-violet’s pre-season

The NBA pre-season è is in full swing. As always, the spotlight is on the Los Angeles Lakers. This year, with LeBron and son Bronny together on the roster, there's even more interest around the yellowviola. The first two friendlies, with T'Wolves and Suns, ended in as many losses. The two matches were played in Palm Desert, not far from the Lakers’ technical training center.

Too bad that the rest of the Yellow Jackets’ pre-season meetings will all be on the road. Specifically, the LA Lakers are expected to travel to Milwaukee, Las Vegas, Phoenix and San Francisco. Finally, on Oct. 22, the first regular season matchup against Minnesota (Italian night, Oct. 22). No contest at Crypto.com Arena, home of the yellowviola (currently under renovation).

LeBron James did not take it well and did not hide his disappointment: "Can someone please explain to me why we have to fly all the way to Milwaukee for a pre-season game!?!?”, his polemical post on X. In short, King James is è not at all happy with the way è his team’s pre-season has been scheduled.

He was echoed by JJ Reddick, as of this season head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers: "Not ideal", his commentary on the schedule that awaits his team in the upcoming games in preparation for the NBA regular season.
