LAKERS AT SAN ANTONIO

When: 5:30 PST.

Where: AT&T Center.

On the air: TV: TWC SportsNet, TWC Deportes; Radio: 710, 1330.

Records: Lakers 12-31, Spurs 27-17.

Update: The Lakers surprised the Spurs in San Antonio last month, 112-110, after Nick Young drilled a 30-foot three-pointer late in overtime and gave himself the nickname “IDM,” for “I Don’t Miss.” Spurs Coach Gregg Popovich didn’t like that game, twice saying his team was “pitiful” in a 44-second interview with reporters that he cut short without taking any questions. Young has since gone in a rough shooting slump and the Lakers have lost their last six games.
