LA Lakers vs LA Clippers Prediction
The Lakers have these games where they put together surprising performances, but they're without Anthony Davis now and won't have Luka just yet. Not easy to beat a nearly fully healthy Clippers squad when you're so undermanned. Also, the favorite has covered eight of the last 10 games between the Lakers and Clippers. The Clippers have been on the winning side in seven of those last 10 games against the Lakers. The Lakers simply need to get their players in the mix before you can trust them against good teams. This trade has set things back a bit as Luka isn't able to ply yet and AD isn't around to help LeBron. Give me the Clippers and the chalk.
