The Los Angeles Lakers have announced they will be returning to Hawaii for training camp this year. It will be the team’s first time back in the state since 2007.

“Hawaii has been like a second home to the Lakers since my father first took the team there in 1988,” said team president Jeanie Buss in a news release. “The love and support we’ve always received from the people in Hawaii has meant so much to us over the years, and we’re thrilled to be returning there next fall and seeing so many of our loyal fans.”

The Lakers will hold training camp at the University of Hawaii and play two preseason games at the Stan Sheriff Center on Oct. 4 and Oct. 6.

The Lakers have held training camp in Hawaii 12 times, beginning in 1988 and most recently in 2007.
