LA Lakers vs Phoenix Suns: Where to watch the match online, live stream, TV channels, and kick-off time

LA Lakers host Phoenix Suns in NBA action later today and GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.

The Lakers have gotten off to a strong start this season with an 15-4 record despite not having superstar LeBron James available for 14 games due to a nerve issue in his leg. James was finally able to get back onto the court against the Utah Jazz where he put up 11 points and 12 assists to kick off his 23rd season in the NBA. Fellow star Luka Doncic also hasn't missed a beat since getting James back on the court and has averaged 37 points since his superstar teammate returned.

Phoenix on the other hand has been able to remain competitive in the face of injury. Phoenix currently four games behind the Lakers in the Western Conference despite not having high-scoring stars Jalen Green, Bradley Beal, and several others whom are out with injuries. 

During the absences of Green and Beal, Devin Booker has carried the load offensively as he usually tends do by averaging 25.7 ppg.
