What channel is Lakers vs. Timberwolves on today? Time, TV schedule, live stream to watch Game 4 of NBA Playoffs series

In Game 3 of the Lakers-Timberwolves series, LeBron James was magnificent, but the Timberwolves were just better. Jaden McDaniels scored 30 while Anthony Edwards notched 29 points, eight rebounds and eight assists in the 116-104 victory.

The first half was tight with the Timberwolves winning the first quarter and the Lakers taking the second. However, Minnesota took control in the second half. James made it close in the fourth with three consecutive three-pointers, but the Timberwolves answered.

This was a significant win, as Minnesota takes a 2-1 series lead into Game 4. When a best-of-seven series is tied 1-1, the winner of Game 3 goes on to win the series 74 percent of the time. It's not a lock, but it's great odds for Minnesota.

It also helps that the Timberwolves already won a game on the road, so they only need to win home games to advance.
