LA Lakers vs Phoenix Suns Prediction

The LA Lakers are coming off back-to-back bad home losses and now face a Suns squad they’ve lost 3 of the last 4 games against. The Phoenix Suns are kind of due for a victory, and they’re getting back Durant and Beal. Before those injuries, the Suns were one of the best teams in the league that was sitting pretty with an 8-1 record. Before the two losses, the Lakers were playing a lot of games close to the vest. With the Suns pretty much full strength now and at home, they should win this game. I’ll lay the chalk.
