Lakers vs Spurs Pick
The Los Angeles Lakers will be looking to bounce back from Friday’s embarrassing loss to the Timberwolves. Anthony Davis claims the Lakers aren’t “winning a championship the way we’re playing” and he’s not wrong. Los Angeles have started the season 4-6 against Western Conference opponents and 2-7 ATS as the home favorite.
San Antonio match up well with Los Angeles on paper. Dejounte Murray and Keldon Johnson lead the charge for the Spurs with the team shooting 47% from the field and 35.7% from deep. The Spurs are 3-1 ATS as the away underdog and totals have gone under in five of of their six away games.
The Lakers currently allow the third most points in the league. They’ll need to put in a much better defensive display if they are to show how serious they are about becoming contenders. The Spurs meanwhile have combined with opponents for less than 200 points in two of their last four games and could do so again in Los Angeles.
Pick: Under 222.5
