Twelve games in the 2021-22 season and the star-studded Lakers start 7-5 and score their most recent home win in extra time against a marquee team in the Miami Heat.
They won a lot of close games, but it’s a huge improvement after losing the first two games to the Warriors and the Suns.

The Heat was on point on Wednesday night, but the Lakers will take it, considering that seasoned players like LeBron James and Rajon Rondo weren’t up to the job. Apart from the injured like Trevor Ariza and Talen Horton-Tucker, of course.
After 12 games in the league’s three weeks, the Lakers will play their next nine games in a fortnight. Here is some information about the upcoming games.
When will the Lakers play next?
After their game against the Heat at the STAPLES Center, the Lakers will play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, November 12th.
They then play two more at home against the San Antonio Spurs (Nov. 14) and the Chicago Bulls (Nov. 15) before embarking on a five-game road trip in the Eastern Conference.
