The Los Angeles Lakers play the Miami Heat on Wednesday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Lakers stopped a troubling four-game skid by beating the surging Orlando Magic, 129-110, on Tuesday. LeBron James had his usual impressive game with 28 points, seven rebounds and five assists, but he received plenty of help for a change. Five of his teammates scored in double figures.
Miami is having a rough season just months after coming within inches of reaching the NBA Finals for the second time in three years last spring. Despite sporting mostly the same roster as last year, it is just 27th in offensive rating, and it is last in scoring at just 108.1 points per game.
This will be the third game of a five-game road trip for L.A. and the second of a back-to-back set.
