JJ Redick led the Los Angeles Lakers to 50 regular-season wins in his first season as head coach. And now his men find themselves staring down the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the NBA Playoffs. But as this Lakers team faces off against the T-Wolves, there are still a lot of unanswered questions about LeBron James and company.

Does LBJ have what it takes to win a ring in his 22nd NBA season? Will his pairing with Luka Doncic give teams trouble in the postseason? Can JJ Redick get a chip in his first season as Lakers head coach? We’ll get some of the answers in the upcoming series against Minnesota.

In the regular season, we saw how good the Purple and Gold can be. They were one of the best defenses in the league during March. And their offensive capabilities were never in doubt.  However, against Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle, and co in the postseason, things are different. The stakes are higher. And as two of the best in the world, the duo of LeBron and Luka will have targets on their backs.

All in all, this series will be a blockbuster start to the Lakers’ postseason. And if you’re wondering, “How do I watch these games?”  Well, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Here’s every detail on that front.

Lakers vs. Timberwolves TV Schedule: How & Where To Watch The Games

The Lakers went 50-32 this season as the duo of LeBron and Luka befuddled defenses across the league. And they had a better record against the 4th and 5th seeded Nuggets and Clippers in the West. This is why the Lakers finished as the 3rd seed in the Western Conference and gained home court advantage for this round of the Playoffs.

Hence, per the NBA’s rules, games 1, 2, 5, and 7 will be played at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Of course, whether the 5th and 7th games happen depends on whether the Lakers do a clean or gentleman’s sweep of the T-Wolves. And vice versa. The first game of this series will emanate from the Lakers’ home stadium on April 19. And you can catch the national broadcast on ABC from the convenience of your home.

The Lakers and the T-Wolves will play in the final game on Saturday. Tip-off is set at 8:30 PM ET and 7:30 PM CT.  Here’s a more convenient view for you:
