Los Angeles at Minnesota

The Los Angeles Lakers have been an elite franchise for decades, but they have really slipped over the last couple of years. They enter this game at 18-51 on the season. The Lakers have not faced many teams that have a worse record than they do, but tonight they will as they head to Minnesota to take on the 16-54 Minnesota Timberwolves. Minnesota is in a historically bad spot for tonight's game, as a team in a competitive game with a line of +3 to -3 that allows 103 points per game or more, and is off a taxing close win of three or less, are just 13-42 ATS. The Lakers have been playing above the line over the last 15 games as they are 11-4 ATS, including 9-1 ATS following a loss. Take the points on LA.
