Lakers vs. Grizzlies: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Jan. 9

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

Los Angeles (21-19) is on a four-game winning streak, having won five of its last six games. This is going to be a big test to see if the Lakers can continue the momentum because the only loss L.A. took during this stretch was at Memphis. L.A. had a strong lead for most of that game but collapsed in the fourth quarter, so a bounce-back performance is needed.

Memphis (27-14) is on an eight-game winning streak, the second-longest in the league. The Grizzlies are performing at a high level on both ends of the floor and beat the L.A. Clippers Saturday without Ja Morant. Morant could play Sunday, but Steven Adams and Xavier Tillman are in health and safety protocol, so the Lakers will likely start LeBron James at center.

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

  • Date: Sunday, Jan. 9, 2022
  • Time: 9:30 p.m. ET
  • TV Channel: Spectrum SportsNet, Bally Sports South/Southwest/Southeast/Midwest
