Betting on the Los Angeles Lakers
- Regular Season Record: 13-20
- DraftKings Spread: +3.5
- DraftKings Moneyline: +135
- DraftKings Over/Under: 235.5
The Los Angeles Lakers are far from being considered a powerhouse team this NBA season. Even with the constant injuries their three main stars have gone through (LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Russell Westbrook), there was hope that it was just a bad start. However, their performance has not improved yet, and they have already played 33 games in total.
They are the worst team in the Pacific Division with 13 wins and 20 losses, which places them as one of the three worst teams in the Western Conference. They have not won since December 18 and have accumulated four straight losses to the Phoenix Suns, the Sacramento Kings, the Charlotte Hornets and to the Dallas Mavericks. In order to stop that negative streak, they must put their hearts and souls into this game, hoping that once again LeBron James can perform well.
Betting on the Orlando Magic
- Regular Season Record: 13-21
- DraftKings Spread: -3.5
- DraftKings Moneyline: -155
- DraftKings Over/Under: 235.5
The Orlando Magic has not been a consistent team, but it has shown some improvement lately and has only two losses in its last 10 games. However, with 13 wins and 21 losses, they are in the second to last position in the Eastern Conference, out of playoff positions.
Currently, they are the only team to have won two games in a row in the Southeast Division, but they have the second most losses registered number, which makes them unreliable. The Magic could benefit from facing the Lakers, especially because of their status as the home team for this edition of the match.
JefeBet Prediction
These teams have not met so far this season, and given the current form of both teams, it is likely that Orlando will be able to end its streak of five consecutive losses to Los Angeles. LeBron James will continue to miss his co-star on the court.
Prediction: Orlando Magic win by 4 points.
