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

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

The tough times continue for the Lakers, who are 2-8 since the All-Star break. They’re coming off back-to-back blowout losses at the hands of the Phoenix Suns and Toronto Raptors in which they got off to very poor starts in the first quarter.

L.A. currently holds the ninth seed in the Western Conference and has a tenuous 1.5-game lead over the 10th-place New Orleans Pelicans.

Minnesota, on the other hand, has been surging of late. It has won 20 of its last 28 games and has been averaging over 120 points a game since the start of 2022.

On Monday, the Timberwolves defeated the San Antonio Spurs 149-139 as All-Star center Karl-Anthony Towns poured in 60 points, an NBA-high this season, while scoring 32 points in the third quarter.
