The Los Angeles Lakers host the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Lakers will look to establish a three-game winning streak for the first time this season and go over .500. They came back from a sizable deficit to defeat the Phoenix Suns on Friday, then they came home and got past the Portland Trail Blazers without LeBron James, who is dealing with a left calf contusion.
The Grizzlies aren’t exactly the same team that played Los Angeles tough in the first round of last season’s playoffs. Without Ja Morant, who is serving a 25-game suspension for his latest gun-related incident, and Steven Adams, who is out for the season after knee surgery, they have the worst record in the Western Conference at 2-8. They’re 27th in points per game and 29th in offensive rating, but their defense is pretty solid to start the season.
This will be L.A.’s second in-season tournament contest this season and its first at Crypto.com Arena.
