New Dodgers pitcher Roki Sasaki has a short and sweet message for LA while watching Tuesday night's Lakers game

The defending American League champs had to pivot -- hard -- after losing a generational star to the crosstown Mets. Here's how they did it -- and what's next.

Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki is soaking up the spotlight in the wake of joining the Dodgers, meeting LeBron James and Rui Hachimura at the Lakers game Tuesday.

Roki Sasaki received a warm LA welcome from LeBron James as the newest Dodgers pitcher was in attendance for the Lakers-Wizards game.

LeBron James had 21 points, 13 assists and 10 rebounds one day after flying to Atlanta and back to watch a football game on his day off, and the Los Angeles Lakers sent the Washington Wizards to their 11th consecutive defeat with a 111-88 victory.

James and Rui Hachimura, who played for the Wizards before arriving in LA, impacted the game early. The Japanese forward had four points and two rebounds in the first six minutes. King James added two points, two rebounds and two assists during the same stretch.

The Mets held their first winter event for fans in five years at Citi Field, and Pete Alonso was a notable absence.
