The Brooklyn Nets (13-35) are coming off one of their worst five-game stretches of the season as they come back from their road trip with just a 1-4 record, including some blowout losses. Brooklyn is finally able to play in front of their home crowd for Tuesday's game against the visiting Los Angeles Lakers (29-19) and if you're wondering how you can watch all the action live, you've come to the right place!

The Nets come into this game following a 130-77 loss at the Detroit Pistons on Sunday in which Brooklyn began the game with a great start, but faltered once the Pistons got themselves into the flow of the game. Cam Thomas had 12 points and three assists coming off the bench while rookie forward Drake Powell had 12 points and three rebounds while trying to fill some of the void left by forward Michael Porter Jr.

The Lakers enter this matchup after a 112-100 loss at the New York Knicks on Sunday in which Los Angeles went back-and-forth with New York in the first half before the third quarter in which they fell behind by double digits. Luka Doncic had 30 points, 15 rebounds, and eight assists to lead the team in all three categories while LeBron James had 22 points and six assists.

Here is what you need to know to get ready for this matchup:
