Los Angeles won the first meeting 132-113 on Jan. 7, and the Lakers have won both games since the All-Star break. Los Angeles is now 6-2 ATS their last eight games. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 17 of his season-high 34 points in the third quarter and had eight 3-pointers in the Lakers' 113-108 win at Sacramento on Saturday night. That followed a 124-102 win over Dallas the night before. Lonzo Ball has returned to the lineup for the Lakers, but had the night off against the Kings. Atlanta has lost three straight, including 116-93 at Indiana on Friday night. The Hawks are 2-8-1 ATS their last 11 against Pacific Division teams and 2-8 ATS at home after at least a seven-day road trip dating to past seasons. The Lakers have covered five of their last six after allowing at least 100 points, and they are 7-2 ATS after scoring 100-plus points. Take the Lakers.
