Im coming to LA from Australia on the 17th Sep and im totally bummed that I wont be able to see ANY NBA. So I was wondering, I know preseason doesnt start till October (and is in Hawaii), but do if the players start any practising before then, if so can the public attend practices? Or, does anyone know where any Lakers like to hang out (restaurants, clubs, bars, shopping etc??) Any help would be GREATLY appreciated
Go to the USC or UCLA basketball gyms, players often go there to play in pick up games. I always see players at Morton's steakhouse. You should see if any players have a charity event they are throwing during those dates.
kinda random, but i saw Kobe and his family at a ballet on opening night (dont ask, family made me go) august 9th. in orange county; the performing arts center
I aunno much about L.A. and im not sure if this is anaheim or l.a. lol but since your going to be in Cali i guess Disneyland lol.
You might want to check out the Los Angeles Sparks, Kobe Bryant's dad is the coach now and Kobe has been attending some of the games.
