Suns vs Lakers NBA live stream reddit for Oct. 22
The 0-1 Phoenix Suns and 0-1 Los Angeles Lakers regroup as they each pursue victory in a heated Western showdown in Los Angeles.
Friday night will be fueled by revenge, as the Los Angeles Lakers have another shot at redemption against the Phoenix Suns home at the Staples Center.
It was the Suns who forced the Lakers out of the playoffs this June, ending what could have been back-to-back championship seasons for L.A.’s decorated team. Chris Paul and the Suns went all the way to the Finals, where they ultimately lost to the Milwaukee Bucks, but not before this team staked a claim on the Western Conference.
The Phoenix dominance continued into October, when the Suns defeated the Lakers 117-105 during an Oct. 6 preseason game. Tonight, the Lakers have another chance to take the win, but it won’t be an easy feat.
Russell Westbrook and Devin Booker look to recover from Game 1 mistakes in this evenly-matched matchup between two Western titans.

Suns vs Lakers NBA Odds
Point Spread: Suns PK (-110), Lakers PK (-110)
Moneyline: Suns -110, Lakers -110
O/U Total: 221
The odds indicate that these two teams are evenly-matched, but perhaps that gives too little credit to what the Lakers are capable of producing.
The greatest mismatch between these two teams is the Lakers’ powerful forwards stepping up to a Suns defense that struggles against bulkier players. With Anthony Davis and Lebron James at the helm, the Suns could face difficulty in undercutting L.A.’s game.
While the Suns still have a strong chance of taking the win, it wouldn’t be a shock to see Davis and James run all over Phoenix.
