How to Watch Lakers vs Clippers

Read More on Affiliate Links

The Lakers and Clippers have gone in opposite directions this season, as the Clippers have already waived team legend Chris Paul, with the team seemingly scapegoating him for its 6-21 start. That hasn’t worked out much so far, as the Clippers have lost five games in a row and are 1-9 in their last 10. Most recently, the Clippers got blown out by the Oklahoma City Thunder 122-101, despite Kawhi Leonard scoring 22 points to go with eight rebounds and six assists.

The Lakers, on the other hand, are 19-7 this season thanks to their elite backcourt, featuring Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, as well as the play of LeBron James, one of the game’s all-time greats, who continues to win his fight against Father Time. In the Lakers’ most recent outing, the purple and gold defeated the Utah Jazz 143-135, behind 45 points, 11 rebounds, and 14 assists from Doncic. James also had a big game, scoring 28 points to go with seven rebounds and 10 assists.

Can the Clippers pull off the upset? Or will the Lakers extend their win streak to three?
