Los Angeles is in double-revenge mode after losing the first two meetings this season by a combined five points. The Lakers played one of their finest games of the season defeating Oklahoma City 112-105 on Monday when Anthony Davis had 27 points and 15 rebounds and LeBron James added 25 points. The Lakers are 12-4 ATS as home favorites of 0.5-4.5 points. Luka Doncic (ankle) is questionable for Dallas, which relied on two outstanding shooting performances to defeat New Orleans 125-120 on Monday. Kyrie Irving exploded for 42 points and Tim Hardaway Jr. poured in 41 points and no other scorer had more than 13. The Lakers can focus on defending those two if Doncic can't go. Dallas has just played seven home games in a row and this is its first road contest since New Year's Day when it lost by 37 points at Utah. Take the Lakers - Max Play.

7:30 PM Eastern
Los Angeles is 10-2 at home but 4-7 straight up on the road. The news gets worse for this game with Anthony Davis (hip) and LeBron James (calf) battling injuries, and uncertain to take the court. The Lakers are 147-187 ATS after four or more straight wins and 38-57 ATS after a spread cover. Dallas has played two of the last three on the road but is clicking on a 3-0 SU/ATS run. The Mavericks are sixth in the NBA in scoring and 10th in 3-point shooting (37.4%). NBA underdogs off a win against a division rival are 42-19 ATS in December games, so back home court. Play Dallas.
