It's Lakers vs Hornets on Jan. 27 in the NBA. Here's how to watch, including time, channel, TV schedule and streaming info.

The LA Lakers led by 20 points after the first quarter, 39-19. Anthony Davis outscored the whole Charlotte Hornets squad with 21 points on 9-for-12 shooting. He added 11 rebounds and two blocks. LA shot an impressive 72.7% (16-for-22), while the Hornets went 30.4% from the field (7-for-23).

After the apparent injury, Austin Reaves did not leave the bench at all and go back to the locker room, but he didn’t return to the game either. But with the Clippers leading the Lakers by double digits, there may not have been a reason for him to have to check back.

The Charlotte Hornets really do want to go full-speed ahead. Much of that depends on available personnel. A roster that is near full strength will be vital when the Hornets face the visiting Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night.
