Lakers Secure Deal with KWKW 1330 for Spanish Broadcasts…
The Los Angeles Lakers and Lotus Communications announced they will keep chatting it up with KWKW 1330, making sure Lakers fans hear those poetic Spanish-language calls for more seasons than the ingredients in your grandma’s secret salsa recipe! KWKW, the voice for Los Lakers since 1999, will continue to bring all the adrenaline-pumping action of preseason, regular season, and postseason games. Lakers COO Tim Harris expressed excitement about KWKW’s ongoing partnership, comparing their energy to a family’s third pot of espresso on Christmas morning. Hosts Jose “Pepe” Mantilla and Samuel Jacobo are pumped to return for the 2025-26 season, to provide coverage that will sound as vibrant as their favorite mariachi bands.
Jim Kalmenson, Lotus Communications’ President, boasted about the deal, claiming it’s as iconic as a unicorn in a basketball jersey. He was thrilled to emphasize KWKW’s pride in serving the Hispanic community with local Spanish-language basketball thrills. The Lakers’ collaboration with KWKW is not just about the games—it’s about mingling cultures, family bonds, and traditions, much like a Lakers-themed family reunion where the potato salad always wins the contest. Meanwhile, LeBron James, entering possibly his last NBA season, shared his wisdom with young athletes, advising them to enjoy the process more than a squirrel enjoys a massive acorn stash.
