NBA Pick
- Lakers -2 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook (check our Caesars Sportsbook Review)
Denver Nuggets vs. Los Angeles Lakers
Thursday, April 25, 2024 – 10:00 PM ET at crypto.com Arena
The AI Model believes the Lakers will add a two-point win over the Nuggets tonight. Los Angeles almost escaped with a win over the Nuggets on the road but fell short. Now, down 2-0 in the series, it’s important for the Lakers to cash in at home.
Rebounding Remains Critical
The Lakers were better offensively than the Nuggets in Game 2 of the series. However, the Lakers fell to the Nuggets, 101-99, because of rebounding.
The Nuggets held the Lakers to 11.9% of offensive rebounds. But will that continue in crypto.com Arena? The Lakers should add more second chances and will likely still add more foul shots.
Denver’s Ability To Keep Turnovers Down
The Nuggets have been good on their own floor, keeping turnovers down. They haven’t even turned the ball over 10% of the time in either game against the Lakers. However, in their last road game against the Memphis Grizzlies, Denver turned the ball over 17.6% of the time.
The Pick
The Lakers haven’t beaten the Nuggets in many games. Still, this could be the one. LeBron James’ legacy is on the line!
