About the Los Angeles Lakers
Few names in the sport carry the weight of the Lakers. Since relocating to Los Angeles, the franchise has built an identity around glamour, star power and a relentless pursuit of silverware, becoming synonymous with 'Showtime' basketball and a golden purple-and-gold heritage. The list of legends is a roll call of the game's greats, from George Mikan and Jerry West to Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, through Shaquille O'Neal and the late Kobe Bryant, and on to the modern era. Each generation has added banners and reshaped what the club stands for. On a game night, the Lakers' downtown arena hums with celebrity and expectation. The atmosphere is unmistakably Los Angeles: a courtside gallery of famous faces, a knowledgeable and demanding home crowd, and a sense that a big moment is never far away. The building tilts loud when the home side goes on a run, and the lower bowl in particular generates real energy close to the floor. The fixtures that stir the most feeling are the intra-city meetings with the LA Clippers, the long-running rivalry with the Boston Celtics rooted in decades of Finals history, and clashes with fellow Western Conference contenders such as the Golden State Warriors. Any visit from a marquee opponent or a returning star tends to lift the occasion.
Tickets
Because the NBA plays an 82-game regular season, the Lakers stage 41 home games, so availability is far wider than an NFL schedule and there is usually more than one chance to catch a fixture you want. Prices tend to spike for marquee visiting teams, weekend tip-offs, nationally televised match-ups and, above all, the postseason, when demand climbs sharply. Seating ranges from courtside and lower-bowl seats that put you right in the action to more affordable upper-tier views that still capture the full sweep of the arena. Every listing on Staadly comes from verified sellers with all-in pricing, so the figure you see includes fees, and each purchase is covered by our 100% buyer guarantee.
Championships & Banners
The Lakers rank among the NBA's most decorated clubs, with a championship haul that sits at the very top of the league's history alongside their fiercest rivals. Their banners span the Minneapolis and Los Angeles eras, taking in the Showtime dynasty, the early-2000s three-peat and a more recent title. The franchise has made numerous Finals and Conference Finals appearances, and continues to build teams aimed squarely at competing deep into the postseason.
Frequently asked questions
How many home games do the Lakers play each season?
The Lakers play 41 regular-season home games as part of the 82-game NBA schedule, which means far more opportunities to attend than a typical NFL season and generally broader availability across the calendar.
When is the NBA schedule released?
The full regular-season schedule is usually confirmed in the pre-season during the late summer. Once fixtures and dates are set, listings tend to build steadily, with the biggest match-ups drawing early interest.
Which Lakers games cost the most, and why?
Prices are driven by the opponent, the day and the occasion. Visits from marquee teams and star players, weekend fixtures, nationally televised games and anything involving rivals such as the Celtics, Clippers or Warriors tend to command more than a midweek meeting with a lower-profile side.
How do playoff tickets differ from the regular season?
Postseason tickets are in much higher demand and typically sit above regular-season levels, with prices rising as a series progresses and stakes grow. Availability can be tighter, so it helps to look early once a series is confirmed.
What do courtside and upper-tier seats actually get me?
Courtside and lower-bowl seats put you close to the floor for an immersive, high-energy view of the players and benches, at a premium. Upper-tier seats are more affordable and offer a broad, elevated view of the whole court, which many fans find ideal for reading the game's flow.
