Brooklyn at Los Angeles

Premium Pick

The Lakers have had trouble getting any consistency this season at 21-17. They seem to be in and out of injuries to key players, and tonight, James and Davis are questionable with foot injuries. LA is just 5-5 in their last 10 games, and on the season, despite being four games over .500, they have a -2 scoring margin per game. Think of this. The Lakers are two games away from not even being in the Western Conference play-in round. Brooklyn is going nowhere at 14-27 but is over .500 ATS for the season and has covered 2 of their last 3 games on this long road trip. The Nets are 15-8-1 ATS on the road this season and 13-6-1 ATS on the road as a dog of 3.5 or more points. Make the play on Brooklyn.
