The LA Lakers are in New York, where they now meet the Knicks following last night’s defeat against the Nets.

Before Betting on the Lakers vs. Knicks

LA Lakers played without LeBron and Davis against the Nets last night and lost 121-104. LBJ probably won’t appear tonight as well due to his foot soreness, while, on the other side, AD should be on the floor. This was the second defeat in a row for the purple and gold, both on the road, in Boston and NY.

Westbrook was near a triple-double in Brooklyn with 17 points, 10 assists, and eight boards. Thomas Bryant ended the night with 18 buckets and nine boards, while Rui Hachimura had 16. Troy Brown Jr. posted a double-double with 11 points and 17 boards.

The Knicks are back home following a nasty schedule. Four of the past five of their events were on the road, and during this stretch, NYK had two victories and three defeats. They, too, played the Nets in the most recent event and lost as well, 122-115. 

Tom Thibodeau’s crew couldn’t defend the Nets’ three-point artillery, which was why they lost. Brunson had 26 points, RJ Barrett 24, while Randle scored 19 having ten boards and eight assists.

The Lakers are 10-16 on the road this year, and without James, who is 75% out for tonight, picking the Knicks to win is the only logical choice.
