Looks like already this has been confirmed as a hacked account.


Thank God, I was seriously contemplating supporting the Charlotte Hornets instead.

Its 3 PS5s, someone that rich could give it to the boys and girls club for free or just have them installed in the Lakers' office break room or practice facility.

If it was true, it would be impossible to come back from. It's that level of unbelievable.

Scalping and reselling small tech might be a smarter business move than owning disaster of Los Angeles Lakers.

Lol. The hackers should have tweeted pics from a certain photo shoot captioned with "Best team owner ever!"... or waited until next Easter to tweet out greetings with the playbunny pics. Now that would've been funny. :lol:

Don't see it as a big deal, Maybe it's a american thing to exaggerated or over exaggerated to certain things, case being i love consoles as much as anyone, but the money raised from the ps5's would go further to improve lives then giving it away for free.

She can also afford to do both. If this was autographed PS5s by LeBron, Kareem and Magic that she is auctioning for charity, that would be something else.

Well...maybe not the Hornets, but still.

Are PS5s still this hard to get? I had one when it first came out and unfortunately had to sell it. I own the new Xbox now but shocked these things are still this hard to get ahold of

Well, congress just passed a chip manufacturing bill, so hopefully PS10 will be easier to get a hold of in 20 years.
