Warriors-Lakers Trends
- Golden State has failed to cover the spread in 10 of their last 11 games.
- LeBron James had recorded at least 10 rebounds in each of the Lakers’ last four games against the Warriors.
- Klay Thompson has scored at least 28 points in three of his last four games vs. the Lakers.
- The Warriors games have failed to go over the total in seven of the past eight contests.
More Lakers Notes
- Alex Kolodziej writes that The Action Network’s model has the Lakers at +3.8 points for the matchup, making Los Angeles undervalued on Saturday night. For what it’s worth, these two teams have played twice this season with Golden State winning by an average of 4.5 points.
- Despite the Lakers’ struggles this season, don’t expect them to shut down LeBron James. “We still have games to play,” James said this week (via Dave McMenamin ESPN). “Until you stomp me out, cut my head off, bury me 12 feet under, then I got a chance. So that’s my confidence.”
