Lakers at Pacers: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Saturday
The Los Angeles Lakers visit the Indiana Pacers on Saturday for a crucial game in the West playoff race, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
The Lakers still have a chance to elevate themselves out of the NBA’s play-in tournament, but the defending champs cannot afford a loss on the road in Indiana. LeBron James’ status is still unknown as of Friday night, and while he tweeted on Wednesday that he’s “getting close” to a return, but all coach Frank Vogel said on Friday was that there’s a “chance” James will play. Dennis Schroder, who has missed an extended period due to the health and safety protocol, has been cleared to return.
Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:
Date: Saturday, May 15
Time: 1 p.m. ET
TV Channel: Spectrum SportsNet (LAL) and Bally Sports Indiana (IND)
