The Los Angeles Lakers visit the New York Knicks on Sunday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place.
This matchup will be arguably the biggest and most important of the Lakers’ eight-game Grammy road trip. They’re 4-2 so far on that trip after slamming the Washington Wizards, 142-111, on Friday, and they will be facing off against a Knicks team that is on a five-game winning streak. Plenty of people around the NBA consider the Knicks to be, if not championship contenders, close to being championship contenders.
New York has a 30-18 record and is in second place in the Eastern Conference. With a 29-18 record, the Lakers are in sixth place in the Western Conference and are in a virtual tie with the seventh-place Phoenix Suns.
This could be LeBron James’ final game at Madison Square Garden, and tickets for this game are going for exorbitant prices — in fact, this is reportedly the most expensive NBA game in terms of ticket prices since the late great Kobe Bryant’s final game in 2016.
