The Los Angeles Lakers play the New Orleans Pelicans in Las Vegas in the semifinal round of the NBA in-season tournament, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Lakers (13-9) motored past the Phoenix Suns, 106-103, in a hotly contested quarterfinal game on Tuesday. LeBron James was the main man, as usual, with 31 points, 11 assists, eight rebounds and five steals. It was a vintage performance from the soon-to-be 39-year-old, and he is clearly motivated to win the first NBA Cup.
New Orleans (12-10) shot down the Sacramento Kings, 127-117, to qualify for the semifinal round. It brings a young and potent cast that features former Laker Brandon Ingram, who is one of the game’s best one-on-one players, sharpshooter C.J. McCollum and the overpowering Zion Williamson.
The winner of this game will move on to the championship game on Saturday and face the winner of the other semifinal contest between the Indiana Pacers and Milwaukee Bucks.
