LiontipsLakers v Utah. Predictions and Betting Tips for NBA
Command Analysis
Lakers are still waiting for Anthony Davis to return. He have a day-to-day injury, but for now the Lakers have to play without him. Everyone else are available for the game. Even Andre Drummond and Marc Gasol will likely return to play. This should strengthen Frank Vogel's squad.
Lakers won their last match. In their last game against Utah they celebrated a 127:115 victory. But they needed overtime to secure a win. Quin Snyder's players managed to even the score in the end of the match, but that didn't help them to avoid a defeat.
Despite their struggles, Utah are still in the lead on Western conference. But their handicap over second-placed Phoenix has narrowed to the minimum. They are two victories away now. Jazzmen will lose their position if their unstable game continue.
Aside from Lakers loss Utah also lost to Washington (121:125) last week. But on the other matchups Snyder's team defeated Oklahoma (106:96) and Indiana (119:111).
