Our Houston Rockets vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction
The fact that the Lakers are the favorites in this game is a little fishy; therefore, we will be looking for the total to go over. The Rockets and Lakers have similar numbers offensively, each averaging about 113 points per game. However, Houston is averaging 119.2 points per game over their last six games, a stretch where the total has gone over the number of 225.5 five times.
As for the Lakers, they are averaging 118.4 points over their last five games while allowing an average of 125.8 points per game during the same stretch. The only meeting between the Lakers and Rockets ended 119-115 in January, and since that game, the Lakers acquired Luka Donic, who brings extra firepower to the Lakers’ offense. Because both teams have been scoring at an alarming rate recently, our Los Angeles Lakers vs Houston Rockets prediction is over 225.5.Caesars Rewards Program
