How to Watch Los Angeles Lakers vs. Boston Celtics: Live Stream, Start Time, TV Channel, Odds, Predictions

The Los Angeles Lakers will be looking to return to winning ways on Friday as they travel to the TD Garden to take on the Boston Celtics in the NBA regular season. We could be in for a closely contested game between the shorthanded Lakers and the inconsistent Celtics.

It has been a very underwhelming start to the season for the Los Angeles Lakers. Just 12 months ago, they were celebrating winning the NBA Championship. But now they look like a shadow of that team. And while it is still very early in the season, things look bleak right now for the record NBA champions. One positive is that LeBron James is closing in on his return from injury, and he could even be on the court against the Celtics. That could be a huge boost to their hopes of finding some form.

Like the Lakers, the Boston Celtics also look like a shadow of the team they were 12 months ago. They have some talented players in their ranks and have already beaten the Bucks and the Heat this season. However, they haven't been able to impress on a consistent basis, and they are ninth in the Eastern Conference standings as a result.

The game will be broadcast locally in the Los Angeles Lakers market on Spectrum SportsNet and the NBC Sports Boston in the Boston Celtics market. Fans who do not live in these states can watch the game live as well, as it will be nationally televised on ESPN with a live stream on fuboTV.
