Spurs vs Lakers Best Bets
Lakers -3.5 (-108 FanDuel)
With all the veteran talent on the Lakers squad, you can be assured they will be striving to rebound after yesterday’s tough defeat to the Mavericks. Coming off a game in which they only scored 82 points against the Rockets, the Spurs have proven to be one of the most inept offensive teams in the league. Only the Pistons current 20-game losing streak is worse than how the Spurs have performed so far this year. They are 5-12 against the spread in their last 17 games, have lost nine straight at home and are 1-7 in their last eight home games versus the Lakers. Combine all of this with the fact that the playoff seeding in the Western Conference is very tight and the Lakers will be out for blood tonight. Thus, you can back Los Angeles with full confidence.
