LA Lakers vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction
The San Antonio Spurs are coming off back-to-back wins and look like a young team that’s slowly but surely starting to figure things out. The return of Devin Vassell helps, obviously. With all that said, it’s a small sample size, and it’s still hard to trust the Spurs against better competition. The Spurs also still have issues finding consistent offense. The Lakers haven’t had much success on the road, but they’re a veteran team that will figure it out, and they’re easier to trust against below-average competition. The Lakers have won 6 of the last 7 games against the Spurs. The line is reasonable. Give me the Lakers.
