The team is in the middle of the second half of the season and has picked up momentum and is approaching the match with Denver having won 9 of the previous 12 meetings. However, the Lakers are still struggling in the standings. So far, it looks like LeBron and company will have to make it to the playoffs via the play-in round. At least for now, the Lakers are only tenth in the Western Conference.
The Lakers played their most recent game at home and were stronger than Washington 134:131 (126:126). Before that, they took the battle for Los Angeles from the Clippers - 116:112.
Denver Nuggets
The Nuggets, unlike the Lakers, can feel comfortable at the end of the regular season - no play-in for Nikola Jokic and his team. And Denver will only fight for the top seed at the end of the championship. Now the club from Colorado is on the third line of the West, but only 1.0 wins behind the first place.
Denver approaches the upcoming match with a series of five consecutive victories. At home during this stretch, the team managed Washington (130:110), Sacramento (117:96) and Miami (103:97), and away they were stronger than Portland (127:112) and Golden State (119:103).
Expert Betting Tips
It is now obvious that Denver will be a contender to defend the championship title this season. Michael Malone's team could very well enter the playoffs from first place in the West, gaining home court advantage all the way to the conference finals. The Nuggets will chase the top spot at the end of the regular season, and they're sure to take another step towards that achievement in their upcoming game against the Lakers. The Lakers have improved lately, but frankly, they are still no match for today's Nuggets. Let's bet on another win for Nikola Jokic over LeBron James.
