Following LeBron James' cryptic announcement, ticket prices for the Lakers’ final regular-season home game jumped to $445.

The Los Angeles Lakers' final regular season game of 2026 has seen a surge in ticket prices amid LeBron James' recent social media post.

Now that Kobe Bryant has officially retired from the NBA, fans from all over the world are doing whatever they can to get their hands on something from his memorable last game, including bidding to buy the air. Yes, you heard that right: Bryant's air.

If we go to their respective peaks, Kobe never put together a season like the one Curry did in 2015-16 when he led the league at 30.1 PPG on 50/45/91 shooting splits. The guy made an NBA record 402 3-pointers at a 45% clip en route to the only unanimous MVP award in history and Curry's second straight.

This was proof that even the best of the best need a helping hand when things are not going their way. And in the end, it delivered Kobe's fifth and final championship ring.
