After winning six of their last seven before the All-Star break, the Golden State Warriors will start their post-break stretch of the season with a critical primetime battle on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Tied in the loss column, the No. 9 Lakers sit ahead of the No. 10 seed Warriors in the Western Conference standings.
The last time the Lakers made the trip to Chase Cente in late January, the Warriors dropped a double-overtime thriller by one point, 145-144. On Thursday, the Lakers will be without LeBron James against the Warriors due to an ankle injury.
Before the Warriors host the Lakers on Thursday night, here’s everything you need to know about the game, including how to watch.
