The game will honor the strength and spirit of Los Angeles as relief and recovery efforts begin for those impacted by the recent wildfires.

The Lakers did lose that game to the Spurs but were able to beat the Heat on Wednesday. That was the first win they've gotten since the tragic events started. Davis and the rest of the Lakers are going to have some extra motivation to win games this season. They are going to be carrying the hopes of the people of Los Angeles with them.

The Lakers play at the crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, which they share with the NHL's Los Angeles Kings and the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks. It's located in downtown L.A., on Figueroa Street. The name changed from Staples Center to crypto.com Arena in December 2021.
