What channel is Memphis Grizzlies vs LA Lakers on tonight? Time, TV Schedule & Live stream | NBA Season 2020-2021

The Memphis Grizzlies will take on the dominant LA Lakers in an interesting NBA matchup at Staples Center on Friday. Ja Morant and crew will be looking to avoid a third consecutive loss against LeBron James' Lakers.

The Grizzlies beat the Charlotte Hornets in their previous game to overturn their four-game losing streak. The win was an impressive one as Taylor Jenkins' men scored a whopping 130 points to the Hornets' 114. As many as seven players scored in double digits, and Kyle Anderson led the pack with 24 points.

The Memphis Grizzlies will have several injury concerns to deal with ahead of this tough matchup away from home. Coach Jenkins will be hoping that his team can still put up a good fight and will take inspiration from the OKC Thunder and the Detroit Pistons, who pushed the Lakers to their limit.

The LA Lakers, on the other hand, have been ruthless this season. Having won their last 6 games, they will be hoping to register a seventh consecutive win and close the gap between them and the Utah Jazz in the West.

LeBron James has been in scintillating form and has left everyone speechless with his performances. However, the 36-year-old is listed as probable against the Memphis Grizzlies due to an ankle problem. Meanwhile, Anthony Davis (Achilles) is listed as questionable after missing the last two games.

Frank Vogel will be hoping to have either one of his two superstars when his team takes on the unpredictable Memphis Grizzlies.
