Fans can livestream tonight’s game for free online by using the free trials offered by DirecTV Stream and Fubo TV.

Tonight’s game will be the second game of an ESPN doubleheader, and it contains a lot of star power.

The Clippers are coming off a game 5 blowout loss at home, where star players James Harden and Paul George played terribly. Both players combined for 22 points and shot 6-25 from the field, while Luka Dončić singlehandedly scored 35 points and shot 14-26 for the Mavericks. Dončić was destroying the Clippers defense all night, but he also had some help from his teammates off the bench. Forward Maxi Kleber averaged less than five points per game in the regular season, but scored 15 points off the bench on Wednesday. Those 15 points matched the two leading scorers for the Clippers, showcasing their offensive struggles in the game. Even though Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving only scored 14 points, the Mavericks starters still outscored the Clippers starters by 20 points on Wednesday.

The Clippers have been missing a healthy Kawhi Leonard all series long, but they were 2-0 without him before game 5. So, even that reason cannot excuse the abysmal play from Harden and George. Leonard has been ruled out for game 6 because of his lingering knee injury, which will put the pressure back on Harden and George to perform in tonight’s elimination game. Since they have shown great performances during this series, the Clippers could win tonight and force a game 7 in Los Angeles. However, many people know about Harden’s woes in the playoffs, especially in must-win games.

With the numerous stars playing in game 6 tonight, fans will want to watch all the action live by using the free trials offered by DirecTV Stream and Fubo TV. Alternatively, fans can watch the game by using a discounted Sling subscription.
