Los Angeles at Dallas

Premium Pick

The Lakers are in an epic battle within the ranks of the Western Conference, one of six teams separated by two games. There is a lot at stake here for LA, but they lost at Oklahoma City last night, and it remains to be seen if LeBron plays on back-to-back nights with the playoffs closing in. The Mavericks are strictly a spoiler team now. They will have Anthony Davis back for this one as well. The Lakers are 5-6 in their last 11 games, and have struggled on the road much of the season. I like Dallas in this one.
