Lakers Secure ESPN LA 710 Partnership…

The Los Angeles Lakers and ESPN LA 710 have decided to keep the airwaves Lakers’ purple and gold by extending their radio rights agreement. ESPN LA has been the go-to voice of the Lakers since 2009, covering everything from preseason buzzer-beaters to playoff heart-stoppers. It’s like hearing your favorite rock band extend their world tour—just without the pyrotechnics unless you count a LeBron dunk. “We love the spirit ESPN LA brings,” said Lakers Chief Tim Harris. With familiar voices like John Ireland and Mychal Thompson staying on board, it’s like the dynamic duo never left Gotham City.

ESPN LA’s Sam Pines can’t contain his excitement about networking with the iconic Lakers, akin to Santa Claus landing a sponsorship deal with a cookie company. Fans won’t miss a beat, whether they’re listening to games live on ESPN 710, through their app, or street-side from a transistor radio that may or may not still exist. On the player front, executives are betting Austin Reaves will stay with the Lakers even as free agency lurks, like a cat eyeballing a mouse statue. And hey, want insider scoops and live shows?
