The Los Angeles Lakers play the Minnesota Timberwolves on Thursday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
After playing very poorly on Monday night in their preseason debut, the Lakers looked much better and crisper on Wednesday versus the Phoenix Suns. They built a sizable lead, however, it vanished in the fourth quarter as head coach Darvin Ham went with several players fighting to make the final roster.
Minnesota is coming off a successful 2021-22 season, and it will have a new look this season, as it traded for All-Star center Rudy Gobert this summer. Many are intrigued about how he will fit in with fellow star big man Karl-Anthony Towns in the T-Wolves’ revamped frontcourt.
