Magic Johnson shared his excitement for the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night.

Johnson, a Lakers and NBA legend, said he is looking forward to watching the clash between the defending champions and the Suns.

“Looking forward to tonight’s Lakers vs. Suns matchup! I can’t wait to see LeBron go against his good friend Chris Paul!” Johnson tweeted.

Phoenix (22-11) is just one game behind the Lakers (24-11) in the NBA standings. Los Angeles will be without Marc Gasol, who is out due to the Health and safety protocols.
