1.77Tip and bets
The Hornets lost their last game by a wide margin. Something like this can be safely expected in Los Angeles, because the guests have nothing to oppose the "lake". Charlotte has too many injured players, and their playing form leaves much to be desired.
We think the Lakers are in for an easy ride. Luka Doncic and LeBron James will destroy the Hornets' defense. We do not believe in the possibilities of the guests.
Our forecast is for the Lakers to score (-11.5) points in 1.80
Bet on the total
In the last match, the Hornets didn't even score 90 points. You should not expect high performance from them. Most likely, the meeting with the Lakers will be a grassroots one.
Forecast — total less than 227.5 points in 1.76
Betting on statistics
Doncic has not yet impressed with his performance with the Lakers. He did not score more than 16 points in the previous two matches. It is likely that he will not be able to perform better today.
Prediction — Luka Doncic: total less than 25.5 points in 1.78
