Command Analysis

LA Lakers

Current form
Ozernye have been acting lately with special motivation. Luka Doncic adapted very quickly, and his partnership with LeBron James began to bring good results.
The Lakers have won three in a row, defeating Portland (102:110), Denver (100:123) and beating Dallas (107:99) in the last meeting. Luka was playing against his former team, so the motivation was off the charts. The star player was eventually able to score a triple-double. J.J. Reddick's team aims to beat Houston in the standings and then compete for a place in the top 3 of the Western Conference. It's going to be a tough game against Minnesota, so we'll have a lot to see.
Disqualifications and injuries
Max Kdeber will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
Ozernye have won four of their last five home matches.
Approximate composition: James- Hachimura, Hayes-Doncic, Reeves.

Minnesota Timberwolves

Current form
The Timberwolves are doing everything possible to cling to a place in the top 6. The team is located on the seventh line of the Western Conference, but does not feel confident, as Golden State, Dallas and Sacramento are on their heels.
In the last meeting, Minnesota beat Oklahoma in overtime, which became somewhat of a sensation (131:128). Jayden McDaniels showed his best side and scored 27 points. The Wolves are ready to continue the fight, and there is a difficult test ahead in the face of the Lakers, also on the road.

LeBron James has received a lot of support with the arrival of Luka Doncic. The star rookie makes the weather on the floor, throws well from behind the arc, and his vision of the game is at a high level. The Lakers are in good shape, and since the next meeting will be held at home, the chances of scoring points are high.
Minnesota may surprise you, but Chris Finch's men spent a lot of effort in the last match. The victory over Oklahoma is inspiring, but it will be no less difficult with the Lakers. In our opinion, LeBron James and company are looking stronger now.
Our prediction is that the Lakers will win by 1.74 points, taking into account the handicap (-4.5)
Bet on the total
The Lakers have noticeably increased their offense, which is visible to the naked eye. Minnesota will definitely not give up without a fight, especially the key players in the ranks. We assume that the match will be held in an attacking manner, and the overall total will be broken.
Betting Tip - total more than 223 points in 1.71
Betting on statistics
Ozernye are showing one of the best performances in the Western Conference at home. J.J. Reddick's team lost only seven games at home, so Minnesota will face real pressure. We assume that Luka Doncic and LeBron James will not let the opponent's defense relax and will break through the individual total.
Prediction – Lakers' individual total is over 115.5 points in 1.90
