More teams need to adopt this hot-girl-in-the-front-office policy.

Los Angeles Lakers talent scout and card-carrying member of the Maxim Hot 100 Bonnie-Jill Laflin hosted at Hawaiian Tropic Zone’s Torrid inside Planet Hollywood Resort Friday night. We imagine she must have a real hard time convincing a bunch of 19-year-olds to come play for L.A. when the Knicks or Celtics make first contact through a scout who looks like Walter Matthau.

Lamar Odom had a preparty for the Lakers season at Jet inside the Mirage Saturday with teammates Kobe Bryant, Derek Fisher, Brian Shaw, Jordan Farmar, Chris Mihn, Luke Walton, and Sun Yue turning up. Odom bought a magnum of Pierre Jouet Rose for the crew and Bryant came back with multiple bottles of Ace of Spades. You know, the last time Kobe laid out a ton of cash was when he bought his wife that $4 million ring after he — you know. What did he do to poor Luke Walton, then?

Meanwhile, Chuck Liddell spent Friday night at Tryst inside Wynn Las Vegas.
