Denver Nuggets vs. Los Angeles Lakers playoff series schedule: Game times, TV

For the third time in the last five years, the Nuggets and Lakers are getting together for a playoff series.

Only this time, it’s not a trip to the NBA Finals on the line (at least not immediately). Denver and Los Angeles are renewing their definitely-not-a-rivalry in the first round of the 2024 Western Conference playoffs after the Nuggets (57-25) finished the regular season as the No. 2 seed and the Lakers (47-35) climbed to No. 7 by beating New Orleans in the Play-In Tournament.

LeBron James, Anthony Davis and the Lakers prevailed in the 2020 Western Conference Finals. Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and the Nuggets got their revenge in 2023.

The rubber match series is set to begin Saturday (6:30 p.m. MT, ABC), with Game 1 at Ball Arena in downtown Denver. Here is the full television schedule for the best-of-seven series.
