Dodgers’ Roki Sasaki Meets LeBron James, Rui Hachimura at Lakers Game, Gets Personalized Jersey

Roki Sasaki hasn’t officially signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers yet, but he’s already getting the star treatment in L.A.

On Tuesday, Sasaki went to the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Washington Wizards game, where he was given a No. 11 Lakers jersey by the team.

Sasaki also got to talk to fellow Japanese star Rui Hachimura, who showed him how to throw up the L.A. sign.

Future Hall of Famer LeBron James also went out of his way to introduce himself to the newest Dodgers star.

Sasaki announced he was signing with the Dodgers last week. While he hasn’t officially been introduced yet, that’s expected to happen this week.

Clearly, Sasaki is already fitting in with the biggest stars in L.A., though. Dodgers front office members Andrew Friedman and Brandon Gomes were also at the Lakers game Tuesday night with their newest star.
