What Channel is OKC Thunder vs LA Lakers on tonight? Time, TV schedule & Live stream l NBA Season 2020-21

The OKC Thunder visit Hollywood when they take on the LA Lakers at the Staples Center on Monday. The Lakers defeated the Thunder 128-99 in Oklahoma last month, and the Thunder will be looking forward to avenge that humiliating loss with a win tonight against the defending champions.

LeBron James had 26 points, six rebounds, and seven assists in their last meeting. If the Thunder don’t want a repeat performance of that match, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will have to play better than he did, when he had 17 points with only two rebounds and one assist.
