The Los Angeles Lakers vs. Phoenix Suns game is the one we have predicted for our readers. The pages of our resource provide the whole prediction for this game.
Los Angeles Lakers
This season, the Lakers won the internal NBA tournament, although that is merely a novelty if the team doesn’t make the playoffs. As of the now, the Lakers are tenth in their conference and have won precisely fifty percent of their games. With a score of 132:131, the team defeated Toronto in their most recent match on their home court in an intense contest. To permanently establish themselves, or at least place in the top 10, they must have a surge. Before this match, the squad will lose two key players.
Suns of Phoenix
Phoenix, who are ranked ninth in the conference and have played one fewer game than the Lakers, are not far behind their impending opponent. Phoenix has won the same amount of games as the Lakers. Even with Durant scoring 30 points, the Suns lost their most recent game 111:138 on the road to the Clippers. This was the team’s third loss in their last four games. The team hasn’t quite reached that level yet, even though they are thought to be championship candidates. Four players will be unable to play due to injuries.
This season, the teams have faced off three times, with the Lakers winning each time, including the internal mini-tournament.On their home court, the Lakers have won 13 games out of 19.The Suns have won 8 of their last 15 road games.
LeBron and Durant’s matchup will undoubtedly be the subject of much discussion leading up to this game, however other players like Booker or Davis may have an impact. Since both teams are given equal odds of winning, it is quite difficult to identify a clear favorite. The Lakers play at home, where the home court advantage still benefits the hosts even though it is not as strong as it is in football. A victory gains more significance as they become direct rivals in the standings. Since the Lakers have been playing better lately than their opponents, we will wager on LeBron and company to win.
