LeBron James Takes Kobe Bryant’s Old Locker In Renovated Lakers Locker Room At Staples Center

For the second time in three nights, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers will face the Denver Nuggets to begin their 2018-19 NBA preseason.

As the Lakers fell short in James’ debut, this will mark the first time he has played at the Staples Center as a member of the Lakers.

With James signing a four-year, $154 million contract in free agency, he will usher in a new era in franchise history and Staples Center is ready to welcome him.

Originally Kobe Bryant’s, James will take his old locker, which belonged to Brandon Ingram in his first two seasons.
