Clippers #Clippers
The Los Angeles Lakers (2-8) and Los Angeles Clippers (6-5) will play each other on Wednesday night in Los Angeles. Here’s how to watch, with gametime and TV information, lineups, bios, plus other key information pertaining to both teams.
Rivalries in the NBA seem to be created each and every year, but one that always sticks out is the in-city battle between the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers. These two teams that share an arena will take on one another on Wednesday night in the season’s second edition of “The Battle For Los Angeles!”
The Lakers have really struggled this season, as they currently find themselves 2-8 and desperately needing a win to try and get things going. Injuries continue to plague the Lakers, as does their inability to find scoring production outside of LeBron James and Anthony Davis.
They are only ten games into the 2022-23 season, but things are already looking bleak for the Lakers in terms of their playoff chances.
As for their counterparts in the Clippers, Paul George has this team starting to trend in the right direction even in the absence of Kawhi Leonard, who is still working his way back to 100 percent from an ACL tear suffered in the 2021 playoffs.
The Clippers are one of the best defensive teams in the league once again and while their offense has been sluggish at times, they have spread their production out around George.
John Wall, Kawhi Leonard, Noman Powell, Ivica Zubac, Reggie Jackson and Marcus Morris Sr. are all averaging double-figures on the season, which makes the Clippers an unpredictable offensive team to guard.
Anything can happen when the Lakers and Clippers meet up and in the second meeting of the 2022-23 season, both teams face a scenario where a loss could wind up being devastating.
Here is how to watch Wednesday night’s game with gametimes and TV, lineups, bios and other must-know details.
