How to Watch Los Angeles Lakers at Oklahoma City Thunder

Los Angeles is one of the biggest surprises in the league, with a sterling record despite not having LeBron James for a single minute of action. Filling the void has been superstar Luka Doncic, who is averaging 37.1 points, 9.4 rebounds, 9.1 assists, and 1.7 steals per game. In their last game, the Lakers defeated the Charlotte Hornets 121-11 behind Doncic and his 38-point effort. Austin Reaves added 24, with Rui Hachimura scoring 21 in the victory.

The Thunder came into the season as the favorites to repeat as NBA Champions, and their 11-1 start is showing that to be a real possibility. They’ve been dominant on both sides of the court, with the No. 5 team in the NBA in terms of offensive rating (119.4) and No. 1 in defensive rating (105.4). They’re on a back-to-back, but they didn’t have to exert themselves much in their previous game, a 126-102 laugher over the Golden State Warriors that saw the Thunder lead by 35 heading into the fourth quarter.

This is a great NBA Basketball matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
