The San Antonio Spurs will host the LA Lakers, seeking to extend their winning run. They are 10th in the Western Conference, half a game behind the Lakers in sixth. Below is our prediction for this match.

The Spurs are in splendid form, coming here on four wins in a row. This is their best stretch since the 2021/22 season. Gregg Popovich’s men have defeated the Thunder, Warriors, and Jazz twice in this run.

In the most recent game away in Utah, San Antonio earned a dominant 128-115 victory. They have now won 10 of 18 games and did so averaging 110.8 points. The Spurs have registered eight of their wins at home.

The Lakers have hit a snag and come into this game having lost their last three fixtures. This is the longest they have gone this year without a win. J.J. Redick’s men were outclassed 127-100 by the Suns in their last game.

It was the second successive game in which they had allowed 127 points and lost by at least 25 points. They have now dropped to 10-7 and have lost five of eight away fixtures.

Despite their struggles, the Lakers, who are averaging 115.4 points, will be confident of a win here. This is because they have already won against the Spurs this season.
