The Los Angeles Lakers host the Miami Heat tonight, March 16th. Here is all the information you need to watch or listen to the game!

The Los Angeles Lakers split their back-to-back earlier in the week. They were able to defeat the Denver Nuggets in the first game at home but lost the second game on the road to the Golden State Warriors.

Now, the Lakers are returning home for a game against the Miami Heat. Tonight will be the second and final meeting between the teams this season. In the first matchup, in Miami, the Lakers were victorious. Los Angeles blew the doors off of Miami, winning 131-113 during their successful four-game road trip.

Everything was clicking for the Lakers in that game as their offense was unstoppable. However, they will be a little shorthanded in the matchup this time.

Small forward Brandon Ingram is still dealing with the strained groin suffered against the Heat. He scored 19 points with five rebounds and five assists, but will not be on the court this time. Kyle Kuzma is also questionable with an ankle injury suffered against the Nuggets.

If both players are out again, Isaiah Thomas could be inserted into the starting lineup again. Thomas made his first start with the Lakers against the Warriors on Wednesday. In the first meeting against the Heat, Thomas was sensational. He scored 29 points off the bench, knocking down six 3-pointers, to go along with six assists and four rebounds.

For Miami, Dwyane Wade had a monster game, scoring 25 points of his own off the bench. However, he will be sidelined tonight with a hamstring injury.

With Wade sidelined, Justise Winslow, Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington could see some more minutes. This will be the third consecutive game that Wade misses. Miami has lost both games.

Can the Lakers keep their success going at the STAPLES Center, where they have won 12 of their last 13 games? Or will Miami exact some revenge from the blowout victory the Lakers had earlier in the season at American Airlines Arena?

We will have to watch and see! Here is all the information you need to watch the Lakers and Heat tonight!
