Lakers jersey history No. 3 — Manny Harris
Through the 2024-25 season, the Los Angeles Lakers have had a total of 506 players suit up for them, going back to their days in Minneapolis. Some were forgettable, some were serviceable, some were good and a select few were flat-out legendary. As the Lakers approach their 80th season of existence (they were founded back in 1946 as the Detroit Gems in the National Basketball League), LeBron Wire is taking a look at each player who has worn their jersey, whether it has been a purple and gold one or the ones they donned back in the Midwest during their early years. Here's a look at Manny Harris, a guard who briefly played for the Lakers. Harris had a solid three seasons at the University of Michigan, where he averaged 17.0 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.7 assists a game and earned first-team All-Big Ten honors in 2009 as a sophomore. However, he went unselected in the 2010 NBA Draft. After spending his first two pro seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Harris played with BC Azovmash in Ukraine during the 2012-13 season. He signed with the Orlando Magic just prior to the 2013-14 campaign, and he then moved on to the Lakers' G League (then known as the NBA Development League) squad in December. In January 2014, he signed his first of two 10-day contracts with the big-league Lakers. He appeared in nine games for them and averaged 8.1 points and 3.8 rebounds in 20 minutes a game. Harris went on to make the D-League All-Star Game that season. Afterward, he played four games for the Dallas Mavericks during the 2016-17 season, and other than that, he has had stints with numerous foreign pro basketball teams. For the past couple of years, he has been with Al Riyadi Beirut of the Lebanese Basketball League. This article originally appeared on LeBron Wire: Lakers jersey history No. 3 — Manny Harris

Pop star Taylor Swift has officially confirmed her 12th studio album and she did it while sitting next to boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, on his hit podcast 'New Heights.' In a preview clip released ahead of the Wednesday episode, Swift appeared alongside Travis Kelce and his brother, co-host Jason Kelce. With a small smile, she placed a briefcase marked with gold 'T.S.' initials on the table. Then came the big reveal. 'So I want to show you something,' Swift said as she opened it. 'This is my brand new album, The Life of a Showgirl.' The reveal followed heavy speculation from Swifties. On Monday morning, her official social media team, Taylor Nation, posted 12 photos from the Eras Tour, all featuring the singer in bright orange outfits. Comment sections quickly filled with theories about a new album and hints that Swift would appear on "New Heights."

Beginning in May 2024, she introduced multiple orange costumes, including an orange "Lover" bodysuit and blazer, along with an orange dress for her acoustic section. Fans began to believe orange would be the theme color for 'TS12.' Swift's last album, "The Tortured Poets Department," released in April 2024, spent 17 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. It was her most successful album debut and earned another Album of the Year Grammy nomination. In a previous teaser, the couple didn't just talk music, they also gave fans a rare look at their playful dynamic. At one point, Swift complimented Travis Kelce's blue hoodie, saying, 'Such a nice color on you.' 'It's the color of your eyes, sweetie,' the tight end replied. 'That's why we match so well.' The clip showed a relaxed Swift smiling and laughing through the banter, something fans immediately shared across social media.
