The Los Angeles Lakers are hosting the Golden State Warriors in a high-stakes Western Conference clash at Crypto.com Arena on Thursday. Just two games separate the teams in the standings, with playoff positioning very much up for grabs.

Stephen Curry is coming off a 52-point outburst in a 134-125 win over the Memphis Grizzlies, while the Lakers — led by LeBron James, Austin Reaves and Luka Doncic — are riding momentum from a 104-98 victory over the Houston Rockets.

Los Angeles has dominated division opponents (12-3), while Golden State has struggled (3-10), though the addition of Jimmy Butler III has helped spark a late-season surge. And when games go down to the wire, the Warriors (6-5 in games decided by fewer than 4 points) have outperformed the Lakers (4-6 in games decided by 3 or fewer).

Expect fireworks, deep threes and plenty of drama in this late-night battle. Follow along for all the big plays and best moments from player arrivals to the final buzzer.
