Both these teams have had disappointing seasons with the Raptors just 32-35 SU and the Lakers at 32-34. The Lakers made a lot of moves to try and make the playoffs but with Deangelo Russell, and Anthony Davis playing at less than 100% with foot or ankle injuries, the expected performances are probably less than what they give. Add in the fact that LeBron James is out for at least another couple of weeks, and that makes the home side very vulnerable here. Toronto has played better at 6-4 over their last 10, and will be circling like sharks to take advantage of the Lakers injuries as they try to end this western swing on a high note. Make it a Max Play on Toronto.
