- The service, priced at $19.99 per month or $179.99 per season, offers both cable cutters and existing Spectrum, DirecTV, and Cox customers live Lakers games and extensive coverage.

- The Access SportsNet: Lakers pregame show airs 60 minutes prior to every game, while the postgame coverage includes player and coach interviews, game highlights, and in-depth analysis, thus intensifying the fan experience.
