The South Bay Lakers are an American professional basketball team based in Los Angeles, California, that competes in the NBA G League. Founded in 2006 as the Los Angeles D-Fenders, the team is owned by the Los Angeles Lakers, who were the first National Basketball Association (NBA) franchise to own a D-League team. The team was renamed for its metro region after the 2016–17 D-League season, when it moved home games from the Toyota Sports Center in El Segundo to the nearby UCLA Health Training Center, a new practice facility for the Los Angeles Lakers.
