The Suns vs Clippers live stream is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT today (June 30th)
It will air on ESPN, which is available on Sling TV, currently on sale down to $10 for the first month.

It's time for the Suns vs Clippers live stream, which sees Paul George going for another dominant playoff output to stave off the end of the series in this NBA playoffs live stream. But the latest news for LA is not good: on Wednesday night, the Clippers listed Kawhi Leonard as out of Game 6 with a right knee sprain. This puts all eyes on George.

Paul George is 31 years-old. He’s played in 107 playoff games. Wednesday night he will be coming off the best postseason performance of his 11-year career. George netted a career high 41 points on 15-for-20 shooting including 3-for-6 from three as he led the Clippers to a 116-102 victory in Game 5. Now this series shifts back to Los Angeles for Game 6.

While George was the hot hand throughout the game, Marcus Morris Sr. made sure the Clippers got the jumpstart they needed. Morris scored 13 of his 22 points in the opening quarter. George really took over in the third quarter, where he scored 20 of his 41 points. 

Now the Suns will try to finish off the Clippers for a second time this series. Phoenix leads this Western Conference Final 3-2. The Suns led once in Game 5, taking a one-point lead for 20 seconds in the third quarter, but that’s when George took over. Devin Booker led the Suns in scoring with 31 points, marking his first 30-plus-point game since Game 1 of this series when he dropped 40. Chris Paul added 22 points with eight assists.  

Los Angeles hosts Game 6 as slight 1-point home underdogs. The over/under is 215.

If you've had to leave your own "bubble" -- or you've been hit by a dreaded local blackout -- and you can't watch Suns vs Clippers live streams on cable, you're not out of luck.

In the U.S. Suns vs Clippers is airing on ESPN, tipping off at 9 p.m. ET today (June 30).

If you've already cut the cord and don't have a cable package, you'll be able to get this game on YouTube TV, Hulu with Live TV, Sling TV and FuboTV. But if you're trying to pick a new service for the NBA Playoffs, don't go with Fubo: it doesn't have TNT.

ESPN and TNT are both included in the Sling Orange package, which costs $35. Sling will be a perfect place to watch all of the NBA playoffs, as Sling Orange gets you TNT, ESPN, ESPN3, and its Sports Extra pack gets you NBA TV.

We recommend you go with Sling, one of the best streaming services, even though it doesn't have ABC (though you can get it with one of the best TV antennas). ABC's playoff games will be simulcast on ESPN3.
