BETTING TRENDS

Philadelphia are 14-4 SU in their last 18 games.

Philadelphia are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games against LA Lakers.

Philadelphia are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games against LA Lakers.

The total has gone OVER in 7 of Philadelphia's last 8 games on the road.

Philadelphia are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games when playing on the road against LA Lakers.

LA Lakers are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games.

The total has gone UNDER in 4 of LA Lakers' last 6 games.

LA Lakers are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games.

LA Lakers are 8-4 SU in their last 12 games at home.

 

Prediction

The Lakers ended their winning streak and now have lost 2 games in a row but are 8-4 in their last 12 games at home. The 76ers have been on fire offensively scoring over 120 points per game in their last 10 games but they're also allowing a lot of points. Harden and Harris are questionable for this game so if they ended up missing this game the Lakers will be in good position of making this game competitive. The Lakers are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games so I'll take them with the points. 

PICK: Lakers +3.5 (-110)
