The Los Angeles Lakers host the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Lakers (20-21) are coming off an important and possibly confidence-building 112-105 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday. The Thunder came into the contest with the Western Conference’s second-best record and are one of the NBA’s elite offensive teams, but L.A. held them to a very low shooting percentage.
Lakers head coach Darvin Ham went with yet another starting lineup in that game, but he says he plans on sticking with it for the foreseeable future.
Dallas won eight of its first 10 games of the season, but it has flattened out ever since, and it currently holds a 24-17 record, which puts it in sixth place in the West. While it has had some struggles defensively, it remains a very potent offensive team, as it ranks seventh in scoring.
Luka Doncic is putting up career highs in scoring, assists and 3-point shooting percentage, while Kyrie Irving continues to take opponents to school with regularity.
These two teams have already met twice this season; the Mavs won both.
