The Dallas Mavericks travel to LA face the Lakers on Nov. 30 in a battle between Rookie of the Year favorite Luka Doncic and four-time MVP LeBron James.

The Dallas Mavericks wrap up the month of November with a road contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. It was a spectacular month that saw the Mavs win eight of their 11 games. That includes four victories over projected Western Conference playoff powers.

Friday will be the second meeting on the season between the two teams. The Mavericks traveled to Los Angeles on Oct. 31 and lost a heartbreaking 114-113 game on a last-second foul by Wesley Matthews that put LeBron James on the line to seal the Lakers victory. LeBron had 29 points in that matchup.

The Lakers are facing the second of a back-to-back tonight. They beat the Pacers on Thursday to snap a two-game losing streak. Playing the red-hot Mavs will not be easy second course, though.

Here is how fans can watch the Nov. 30 game between the Dallas Mavericks and the Los Angeles Lakers.

Start Time

Friday’s game inside the Staples Center begins at 10:30 p.m. ET or 9:30 p.m. in Dallas.

How to watch

Local television broadcasts are the way to watch this battle. The Mavericks are on Fox Sports Southwest-Dallas, and in Los Angeles fans can see it on Spectrum SportsNet.

Watch online

Fubo TV continues to be the best outlet to watch the contest online because it features both NBA League Pass and all your favorite networks.

Local Mavs fans can also stream Friday’s game via the Fox Sports app.

Storyline to follow- Doncic vs. LeBron

Mavericks forward Luka Doncic will once again match up against his idol LeBron James. Fans will remember after the first meeting Luka waited outside the Lakers locker room for King James’ jersey. Doncic went total fanboy for LeBron.

The 19-year-old should be ready for a strong game tonight. Doncic has ten 20-point games so far, but fans know he loves to shine in the biggest moments. It could be his second 30-point performance against the Lakers.

LeBron is impossible to stop and has taken over plenty to secure Los Angeles victories. Expect him to try to put the Lakers on his back tonight. The Mavs will match Harrison Barnes and Dorian Finney-Smith on King James, but he is nearly impossible to stop.

Final thoughts

The Dallas Mavericks take on the Los Angeles Lakers at nearly the perfect time on Friday evening. The Mavs are one of the hottest teams in the NBA, and the Lakers are facing the second of a back-to-back.

The LA bench is without Rajon Rondo and has not been strong this season. Dallas needs to take advantage of the Lakers weakness and dominate the bench scoring tonight. Massive performances from J.J. Barea and the second unit should help the Mavericks secure a victory.
