The Heat-Lakers nightcap averaged just 978,000 viewers on ESPN, down 12% from the same matchup on the same night last year — when neither LeBron James nor Anthony Davis played due to injury (1.11M) — and the least-watched game involving James since 2013, when ESPN added Sixers-Heat opposite the men's Final Four due to Miami's 27-game winning streak (638K).
