For the Los Angeles Lakers, both LeBron James and Anthony Davis are game-time decisions. If they don’t play, the Lakers can hope for Austin Reaves to shine. When the power duo doesn’t play, Reaves typically provides well for his team. He’s averaging 16.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 5.6 assists. D’Angelo Russell has also had a solid season. In his last game against the Memphis Grizzlies, he scored 23 points.

The Indiana Pacers’ top scorer is Tyrese Haliburton, who is averaging 20.3 points on the season. However, in his last game against the Lakers, he only scored 12 points. Pascal Siakam, on the other hand, had 36 points against them. Siakam has been a significant boost for the Pacers after they picked him up in a trade midseason. For the Pacers to win tonight, he and Haliburton will need to be having a good night.

Game Prediction

In their last game against each other, the Los Angeles Lakers won 150-145. However, that was with LeBron James scoring 26 and Anthony Davis scoring 36. If James and Davis don’t play, the Pacers have a strong chance of winning. The Pacers are also a high-scoring team, so without their two top scorers, the Lakers might be a bit flat on offense. 

Final Pick 

Indiana Pacers -4
