Result:
WIN

Los Angeles won for just the second time in eight games in a 139-106 victory over Portland on Friday night as LeBron James scored 43 points, but the Lakers still can't be trusted laying this many points against Minnesota, which won the last meeting, 110-92, in the game Anthony Davis was injured, and he'll still be out for awhile. The Timberwolves also beat the Lakers, 107-83, on Nov. 12. Minnesota lost to Utah on Friday, but they did get Anthony Edwards back, and he scored 26 points. The Timberwolves are 4-0-1 ATS their last five games as road underdogs, and the Lakers are 8-18 ATS as favorites. They are also 3-7 ATS their last 10 home games overall and 4-11 ATS following an ATS win. Minnesota is 6-2-1 ATS in its last nine games overall. Take the Timberwolves.
