1.85Tip and bets
It's unlikely the Pelicans will be able to stop the Lakers. Reddick's players have gained excellent playing form and are not going to stop there. They got their previous opponents out of the way too easily.
Most likely, the New Orleans players won't put up much of a fight. They don't need it. With that in mind, we assume that the Lakers won't have any problems.
Our prediction is the Lakers with a handicap of (-7.5) points in 1.77
Bet on the total
The Lakers have been very confident defensively in recent games. For example, they did not allow the Clippers to score more than 102 points. In this regard, we suggest betting that the face-to-face meeting will turn out to be grassroots.
