Rockets at Lakers: Lineups, injury reports and broadcast info for Wednesday

LeBron James is finally set to return for the Lakers on Wednesday night, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

It was initially reported that James could have returned on Tuesday against the Knicks, but ESPN reported James is targeting Wednesday’s Rockets game to make his comeback ahead of the playoff run. Houston has the worst record in the NBA at 16-53, and has lost six in a row. The Lakers (39-30) still have plenty to play for. They trail the Portland Trail Blazers and Dallas Mavericks by one game in the Western Conference standings.

Here’s when you should tune in to see Wednesday’s game:

• Date: Wednesday, May 12

• Time: 10:30 p.m. ET

• TV Channel: Spectrum SportsNet (LAL) and AT&T SportsNet Southwest (HOU)
