Sacramento at Los Angeles

Premium Pick

The LA Lakers have taken a huge step back after Kobe Bryant retired, and the pieces that appeared to be coming together, have come apart at the seams. It seems like all the talk is about who they could coax to come to LA such as LeBron James, as opposed to who is in the house, and it seems to be tearing the team apart. The Lakers are in free fall-mode from a low place to a lower one, and they are just a woeful 2-12 in their last 14 games. Sacramento is in practically the same boat, but not in the poor mental state the Lakers team seems to be. Lonzo Ball's father appears as if he is running the Lakers and the optics and play have been awful. Make the play on Sacramento on the moneyline.
