The game starts at 10 p.m. Eastern and can be seen on TNT.
While the Warriors are looking to defend last season’s NBA championship and get another ring for the thumb, the Lakers are looking to rebound after what many consider a disastrous 2021-22 campaign.

Advice and prediction
The Lakers are entering this contest banged up. Troy Brown Jr., Thomas Bryant and Dennis Schroder will not play. Their injury situation will test the Lakers’ depth against the defending world champs.
An interesting note: Over the last several years, L.A. has been surprisingly competitive with the Warriors. It has had numerous unexpectedly close games and even a few upset wins.
However, given the circumstances, we expect the Lakers to drop this contest, and it could get ugly, especially since they’ll be short-handed.
Prediction: Warriors 118, Lakers 107
