Result:
LOSS

The Lakers know they can't afford many more losses and Houston presents a great opportunity for Los Angeles to get back on track after it lost again on Monday. This time it was 117-110 against San Antonio without LeBron James, who was out with a sore left knee. James is questionable tonight and the Rockets have several players who are questionable, including Christian Wood with a non-COVID illness. The Lakers have won the last 10 meetings and covered the spread in seven of them and they are 7-2-1 ATS their past 10 games following an ATS loss. Houston is 15-37 ATS as an underdog and 15-40 ATS its past 55 games versus teams with losing records. Also, the Rockets are just 20-49 ATS their past 69 home games. Take the Lakers - Max Play.
