-- Farmar was drafted by the Lakers in 2006 with the 26th pick in the first round and averaged 6.9 points and 2.1 assists in 18.1 minutes in four years with the team. He played a significant role in the two championships he won as the backup point guard behind Derek Fisher.
- On April 1, 2007, Farmar become the first player ever to participate in both a D-League and an NBA game on the same day.
- Farmar, who showed his professionalism from day one, was the backup point guard of Smush Parker for most of the 2006-07 NBA season, but after Parker's public criticism of Phil Jackson, the coach made him the starter in the Lakers last 2 games of the regular season and in the 5 playoff games against the Suns.
- The return of Derek Fisher sent him back to the bench but with a more prominent role and increased minutes. Phil Jackson is well known for his dislike for small guards and traditional point guards but Farmar earned the coach respect and the responsibility to run a much faster version of the triangle offense with the team's second unit.
- During the 2009-10 season Farmar repeatedly said he wanted to lead a team and since the Lakers didn't want to spend big money on him they decided not to tender a qualifying offer of about $3 million, allowing him to be an unrestricted free agent who could sign wherever he wanted. In an unexpected move he signed a 3-year $12-million contract with the Nets just to be the backup point guard behind Devin Harris.
