Lakers vs. Rockets: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Wednesday

The Los Angeles Lakers visit the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Lakers (3-4) are 0-2 on their four-game road trip, and they hope to get back on track versus a young and scrappy Rockets team. They have been short-handed lately, but they may be starting to get a bit healthier. Forward Rui Hachimura is listed as probable, while Anthony Davis, who suffered a hip injury on Monday versus the Miami Heat, is questionable.

Houston (3-3) is looking to return to respectability with a young roster. It also has Dillon Brooks, who has arguably looked to make himself into a villain of LeBron James in recent months.

How to watch

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

  • Date: Nov. 8, 2023
  • Time: 5 p.m. PT
  • TV Channel: Spectrum SportsNet
