Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers: Bets and Odds for the match on 6 April

In this Western Conference match, the Phoenix Suns will host the LA Lakers. The game will take place on 6 March at 2:30 AM UTC. The Suns have the best record in the league, compiling 62 wins and 16 losses, guaranteed to finish as the top team in the league at this point. On the other hand, the Los Angeles Lakers have fallen out of the Play-in tournament race, right now at 31 wins and 47 losses, currently on a six-game losing streak.

Bookmakers related to 22Bet suggest that the Phoenix Suns Individual Total 1 Over is 121.5 for equal odds of 1.90. Considering the defense of the Lakers and loaded offense of the Suns, these odds surely make sense.

Bookmakers at Bet365 suggest a handicap of 11.5 either way. With the way, the Lakers and the Suns match up perhaps, a swing of 11 points is not surprising. However, times are desperate for the Lakers so can’t they pull off a surprise win here?

Bookmakers at 1xBet believe that the Total is going to be around 231 and provide equal odds of 1.97 for over and under for 231.5. The Total 1 is slated at 121, the Total 2 at 111 and this makes sense. However, if both Davis and LeBron end up missing the game for the Lakers, getting to 110 will be highly difficult, but if these two, it can be accomplished.

This game is available on the NBA League Pass.

The Phoenix Suns have had a couple of surprising losses, one against the Thunder, which has to be the most stunning one while the other against the short-handed Grizzlies. Despite these losses, the Suns are primed to finish with the best record in the league and will be a force to deal with in the Playoffs. They have perhaps the best backcourt of Paul and Booker, Bridges has shown huge growth, Ayton has been getting it done in the middle while Crowder and Johnson square off a brilliant roster. The team reached the NBA Finals last season and there is no doubt that the bar is that high.

The Los Angeles Lakers have been amidst a turbulent season. They have only fallen more games below the 50% win rate. They are on a six-game losing streak and without LeBron James, they fall apart completely. The team is one of the worst defensive squads in the league while their offense has been a bit inefficient these days. Westbrook has been much better compared to earlier months while Monk has gotten it done too but the lack of rebounding, defense, and hustle keeps haunting this squad. The Spurs have two more wins and two fewer losses, playing much better than the Lakers, which can mean that the Lakers will see their season cut short in the Regular Season.
