Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets: How to watch NBA preseason online
The Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets play Wednesday, October 4th at Citizens Business Bank Arena. Here is all the information you need to watch the game.
For the second time in as many games, the Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets will face off. The Lakers and Nuggets played on Monday night with the Nuggets coming away from the STAPLES Center with a 113-107 victory. The Lakers will now look to exact some revenge north of the border.
Tonight, the Lakers and Nuggets will face off in Ontario, Canada. It gives basketball fans without an NBA team a chance to see some NBA action, which will help the league grow its reach.
Tonight, there are a few things to watch for. At the top of most fans lists’ is whether or not Lonzo Ball will play. Ball tweaked his ankle in the first half Monday. He was able to play after halftime but did not last very long in the second half. The Lakers have been extremely cautious, and rightfully so, in the early going with injured players so it would not be surprising to see Ball sit.
If Ball does sit out, Tyler Ennis will probably move into the starting lineup. It would also give an opportunity to Briante Weber and Vander Blue to prove their worth.

If the Lakers are to pick up their first victory of the preseason, they will have to shore things up defensively. The Nuggets received very little resistance, shooting 46.4 percent from the field and a scorching 55.6 percent from deep.
Gary Harris led the way with 25 points, knocking down 5-of-7 three-point attempts. The Lakers will have to put more pressure on the Nuggets on the perimeter or else it will be another long night.
The Lakers bench had a strong performance against the Nuggets on Monday. If their starters played half as well, they would have probably come away with a victory.
What lineup will we see Luke Walton start the game with tonight? We will have to wait and see. This part of the season is about evaluation and finding the right combination of players that work, so expect to see more tinkering.
Will that tinkering lead to a victory this time around? We will have to watch and see. Here is all the information you need to watch the Lakers and Nuggets tonight from north of the border.
