Fanduel Odds

Another great game between two top teams in the Western conference. The Suns are on the road against the Lakers who have struggled recently but did win their last game emphatically against the Warriors. I believe the Lakers are going to get another win tonight behind their great defense, and shut down the young talent that Phoenix possesses. They get Schroeder back who will help generate offense and neutralize Chris Paul who is an important piece for the Suns’ offense. I believe the Suns will go to Booker and Ayton to score but that the rest of the team will struggle. LeBron will look to facilitate the ball well tonight and his shooters will knock down their shots. Take the Lakers -1, LeBron James over 7.5 assists, Markieff Morris over 7.5 points, Deandre Ayton 15.5 points, and Chris Paul under 16.5 points.
