Los Angeles allowed 104 points the last game against Oklahoma City, but the the UNDER is 5-1 after the Lakers allow 100 points or more in their previous game. The UNDER is also 5-0 when the Lakers are playing on one days rest. They face a banged up Sacramento team that is 2-8 without DeMarcus Cousins. They've scored 95 or fewer points in three of the last five. They dropped to 0-2 UNDER interim coach Tyrone Corbin, who took over after Michael Malone's firing Monday. The Kings' current five-game skid began with a 98-95 road loss to the Lakers on Dec. 9th, a game that sailed UNDER the total by 17 points. Kobe Bryant shot only 11 for 27 that night, but has been even worse in four games since, hitting 30.1% from the field. Sacramento is 5-1 UNDER the total against a team with a losing record, and this total is too high. Play the Los Angeles Lakers/Kings UNDER the total.
