Los Angeles at Washington

The Lakers bring their 17-7 record on the season to Washington to face the Wizards. The Wizards have sure had their problems on the road, but have been a much more competitive team at home. This team beat Portland here, and lost to Orlando by just a single point. They have suffered seven double-digit losses on the road, but in their last nine home games, they have not lost any by more than 8 points. This line gets juiced because the Wizards are 6-16 and it is the Lakers, but this one is set to high, especially considering the Lakers are just 5-7 ATS away from Staples this year. Teams in the NBA getting 10+ at home are very good bets as they are 110-78-1 ATS (59%) since 1998. I like Washington in this one. Computer matchup for this game
