Lakers vs. Kings: Stream, lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Jan. 4

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

Los Angeles (19-19) is looking to make it three wins in a row as the Sacramento Kings come to Crypto.com Arena. The Lakers have notched wins against the Portland Trail Blazers and Minnesota Timberwolves, and LeBron James continues to perform at a high level.

Sacramento (16-22) has won three of its last four games as second-year guard Tyrese Haliburton has become an assist machine with the ball in his hands more often. De’Aaron Fox has been struggling to score lately, so the Lakers will need to press defensively to ensure he doesn’t have a big night.

The Kings have two 6-foot-11 bigs projected to start in Richaun Holmes’ absence (health and safety protocol), including former Laker Damian Jones. That could push Dwight Howard into the starting lineup since Stanley Johnson’s 10-day contract expired, and he hasn’t yet been inked to a new deal.

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

  • Date: Tuesday, Jan. 4, 2022
  • Time: 10:30 p.m. ET
  • TV Channel: NBA TV, Spectrum SportsNet, NBC Sports California
