Lakers vs. Timberwolves: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Friday

The Los Angeles Lakers host the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

Los Angeles is coming off a hard-earned win on Wednesday over the Oklahoma City Thunder despite not having LeBron James, Anthony Davis or D’Angelo Russell in uniform. It has won five of its last seven games, and this contest will be the first of five straight at home.

The Timberwolves have lost three of their last four games, and they have really missed star center Karl-Anthony Towns, who has been out with a calf injury since late November. However, in his absence, guard Anthony Edwards has stepped up and had some big scoring games.
