The Los Angeles Lakers play the Atlanta Hawks on Friday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
Losers of five of their last six games, the Lakers are in desperate need of wins, as LeBron James has made it no secret that he is frustrated. With their five-game road trip starting to wind down, they no doubt want to return home next week with at least a little bit of momentum.
The Hawks, who reached the Eastern Conference Finals in 2021, traded for Dejounte Murray this past summer and thought they would have a playoff-caliber roster. Instead, they sit at 17-18, which is the ninth-best record in the Eastern Conference.
