Result:
LOSS

Defending champion Golden State is showcasing its depth and flexibility, tops in the NBA in scoring and field goal shooting, third from the charity stripe, while the defense is No. 1 in field goal shooting allowed (.433). The Warriors have won eight in a row, is off a blowout win over Dallas, and the team is 25-10-1 ATS after a spread cover. They face a tired Los Angeles Lakers squad that has a losing home record and returns home after a four-game trip. Los Angeles has dropped seven of its last nine games and allowed at least 113 points in each of those seven setbacks. The Lakers are last in free throw shooting (.703), last in three-point shooting, while the defense is #25 in points allowed. The Warriors are on a 13-6 ATS run against the Lakers with the favorite 15-7 when they meet. Play Golden State.
