With Austin Reeves and Luka Doncic out in this game, LeBron James must try to fend off Father Time anew to help the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Phoenix Suns for only the second time this season.
Momentum: The Phoenix Suns have won two of their last three games to seal their play-in spot in the West. The Los Angeles Lakers snapped a three-game skid with a 119-103 win over the Golden State Warriors. The purple-and-gold still has a chance to secure the No.4 spot in the West if they win their last two games.
Matchup: The Suns have won three of the four meetings with the Lakers this season. In their recent meeting last February 26, Grayson Allen scored 28 points off the bench, and Collin Gillespie added 21 to lead the Suns to a 113-110 win. Phoenix is 5-2 SU in its last 7 games against the LA Lakers.
Hot on the Board: The Lakers are a +122 underdog at Caesars Sportsbook mainly because of their 3-1 slate vs. the Suns in their previous four games. The spread sits at 2.5 points and the total at 218.5 points.
