Lakers great James Worthy gets about $2 million for Bel-Air home
Hall of Fame basketball player and Lakers assistant James Worthy has sold a home in Bel-Air for $2.025 million in a deal completed outside the Multiple Listing Service.
The two-story house in guard-gated Bel-Air Crest originally listed for sale in September for $2.195 million and was taken off the market in November. Worthy bought the home nearly two decades ago for $945,000, records show.
Within nearly 3,900 square feet of space is an eat-in kitchen, formal living and dining rooms, a wet bar and a media/game room. Cathedral-style ceilings, wood and tile floors and a pair of fireplaces are among the interior details.
A total of four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms includes a master suite complete with dual vanities and a jetted soaking tub.
French doors open to a paver patio hedged by mature trees. A two-car garage sits off the front of the home.

He has been a studio analyst for Time Warner Cable SportsNet since 2012.
