Lakers vs. Mavericks: Stream, lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Tuesday

Lakers #Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers visit the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

Fresh off winning the NBA Cup on Saturday, the Lakers (14-9) will head to Texas for a three-game road trip that begins with this contest versus Luka Doncic and crew. These two teams met on Nov. 22 in Los Angeles, with Dallas getting out to a large lead before enduring a late run by the Lakers and holding on to win, 104-101.

Los Angeles has won 11 out of its last 15 games, not including Saturday’s in-season tournament final, and it has done so on the defensive end. It ranks sixth in defensive rating and has allowed the fewest free throw attempts per game in the league.

The Mavs (14-8) are sixth in points per game and fourth in offensive rating, and although they’re a relatively modest 10th in 3-point shooting percentage, they’re first in both 3-point attempts and makes. The Lakers will not only need to clamp down on their outside shooting but also throw in a good number of darts of their own from downtown.

LeBron James and crew are only 26th in 3-point attempts allowed per contest this season, as well as 29th in 3-point attempts and 25th in 3-point accuracy on offense.
