Los Angeles Lakers vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction

The Lakers are rolling, and it makes the points worth a look. However, the Lakers are also undermanned with a handful of injuries, and playing on the end of a back-to-back usually hurts even more for a banged up team. The Trail Blazers are also coming off a strong week where they won 3 straight games, they’re rested, and they’re a young group that pushes the pace and is ninth in scoring. An older Lakers team on tired legs, this could be a mismatch. I’ll lay the small number with the Trail Blazers at home.
