Lakers Spotlight

The Los Angeles Lakers got back to winning, this time against the lowly Detroit Pistons, although they failed to cover the spread at 10-point favorites. On the road, the Laker’s offense rank 8th in points per game, 21st in field goal percentage, and 20th in 3-point shooting. Defensively on the road, the Lakers rank 26th in points allowed, 11th in field goal percentage, 15th in 3-point shooting, and 28th in rebounding.


Kings Spotlight

The Sacramento Kings just had their two-game win streak snapped to the Memphis Grizzlies, while failing to keep it within the 4-point spread. Offensively at home, the Kings rank 19th in points per game, 17th in field goal percentage, and 28th in 3-point shooting. On the defensive side, they rank 23rd in points allowed, 21st in field goal percentage and 3-point shooting, and 12th in rebounding.


Final Say

Neither team has been in good form lately where the Lakers are just 1-5 ATS in their last six games and 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games. They also are just 1-4 SU in their last five versus the Kings and 0-6 SU in their last six versus a Pacific Division opponent. The Kings haven’t been profitable either, going 1-5 ATS in their last six home games, and are 0-5 ATS in their last five games at home versus the Lakers. The Kings just took down the Lakers a couple games ago, on their home court as 7.5-point underdogs, so they shouldn’t fear the name and players on that team, especially since the Lakers are banged up right now. In the Lakers last eight road games versus a team with a losing record, they are just 1-6-1 ATS. Rolling with the Kings to handle business abasing the Lakers again.


Pick: Sacramento Kings +4
