Tonight's Clippers vs Lakers live stream is how you start the NBA season off right. Not only is this. likely preview of the Western Conference Finals, but you've got the Lakers finally back at at 100% health (or pretty close to it) for this NBA live stream.
Yes, while point guard Dennis Schroder is listed as day-to-day, Frank Vogel has his pick of the entire lineup, and won't be revealing his starting five until Tuesday, "before the game," as he told the press.

It's easy to see that LeBron James and Anthony Davis have secure spots in that lineup, and Marc Gasol makes the most sense for center, but we'll be curious to see how the defending champions start the season, after limping through the playoffs at times.
And the frustrating thing for the Clippers is that while they're seen as a strong pick to win it all this year, they're stuck in the same conference as the number 1 favorites (according to a poll of NBA GMs): the Lakers.
So, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Clippers come out guns blazing with something to prove in this season opener. And, unlike the bubble games we saw last season, the Clippers vs Lakers live stream is coming from the Staples Center, their shared home court.
Here's everything you need to watch the Clippers vs Lakers live stream open the NBA season:
