The Los Angeles Lakers visit the Golden State Warriors on Thursday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
After the long All-Star break, the Purple and Gold will return to the court looking to extend their newfound positive momentum. They have won three games in a row, six of their last seven and 11 of their previous 16. That spurt has boosted their record to 30-26, which puts them in ninth place in the Western Conference.
Golden State, which has a 27-26 record, is in 10th place in the West. Like the Lakers, it has been on a mini-roll in its own right, having won eight of its last 10 contests. Thus, this will not be an easy game for L.A. by any means, especially since LeBron James will not play due to an ailing ankle.
This will be the second meeting this season between these two teams. Nearly a month ago, they competed in a thriller for the ages that went into double overtime, with the Lakers prevailing 145-144.
