The Denver Nuggets and the LA Lakers are both really banged up. Denver has Murray, Jokic, and Braun on the injury report. That is 65 points, 22 rebounds, and 19 assists that could be out, or could play, but certainly not at 100%. The Lakers are going to be without LeBron James for sure and it looks like Doncic and Hochimura are either going to be out or not at 100%. Those numbers are nearly identical to Denver. Those three Lakers average 65 points 22 rebounds and 18 assists. There is just too much star-power that at best won't be utilized to their fullest extent, if at all. The Lakers have been the second best team at home in the Western Conference this season at 27-7. The Lakers are on a heater at home where they are 14-1 SU and 12-3 ATS in their last 15. Make the play on the Lakers ATS, and bet this game to stay UNDER.
