Premium Pick

The Lakers continue to roll, on a 10-1 SU, 7-3-1 ATS run. LeBron James scored 31 points while three others hit the 20-point mark in Saturday's 124-115 triumph at Houston. Even without Anthony Davis, the Lakers outrebounded the Rockets with their big frontcourt of Kyle Kuzma, James, and Dwight Howard. They match up well with a struggling Boston squad that is susceptible to teams with tall frontcourts. The Celtics are on a 2-6 SU/3-5 ATS run. They come off a 123-119 loss at home to the Suns as star guards Kemba Walker (knee) and Jaylen Brown (thumb) sat out. The Celtics are 12-32 ATS at home after allowing 115+ points the previous game, and the Lakers are 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings. Play the Los Angeles Lakers.
