Charlotte at Los Angeles

February 19, 2025
img10:00 PM Eastern

Five of the past seven meetings have gone OVER and Los Angeles is 7-1 OVER its past seven games, including its past four. The Lakers have averaged 125.6 points their past seven games and they have gone OVER nine of 10 Wednesday games. Los Angeles is 5-0 OVER its past five as a favorite and 4-0 OVER against teams with below .400 winning percentages. LeBron James missed the All-Star Game with foot and ankle injuries, but he is expected to play against the Hornets as he has a newfound energy with Luka Doncic on the team and he is anxious to form better chemistry with his new teammate. The Lakers have gone OVER the total by an average of 13.5 points their past three games. Take the OVER.

Charlotte at Los Angeles

The Lakers are like fool's gold. You see a team with James and Davis, and wonder why they play up and down, but never seem to put themselves a great distance from a .500 team. The Lakers have a scoring margin of +2 on the season, which says .500 team. They can struggle at times because the defense is poor, allowing teams to shoot 48% on the season and 36% from three. Charotte is 8-27 on the season, so they won't have the Lakers up to play them. Charlotte doesn't draw the best out of their opponents and it is why they 9-7 ATS on the road. That alone is more ATS wins on the road than the team's overall wins (8). Grab the points with Charlotte.
