LA Lakers (3-0) will be back at home on Tuesday night when they take on Portland Trail Blazers (2-0) at Crypto.com Arena. The Lakers are coming off their first away win of the season, defeating Utah Jazz 123-132 to survive a slow start. It was a night to remember for Luca Doncic, who produced a 52-point game, although Walker Kessler was underwhelming. Austin Reaves was also superb, tallying 23 points. The Lakers are understandably the -150 betting favorites tonight.
The Trail Blazers, on the other side of the hardwood, will come into this contest as the exciting +115 betting underdogs. Like the Lakers, the Blazers have enjoyed a strong start to the season, defeating the Suns and the Kings. Deni Avdija and Damian Lillard tallied 26 and 19 points, respectively, last Saturday to help the Blazers outscore the Kings 120-128. They should be ready for the battle at Crypto.com Arena, coming off a refreshing 4-day rest.

Our Los Angeles Lakers vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
The Blazers have shown that they can score the ball, meaning the Lakers’ defense must do better tonight. They’ll look to nullify the threat of Doncic and Reaves by deploying Toumani Camara and Jrue Holiday to track the star duo. However, Los Angeles’ early-season record shows that they can hold their own against the visitors’ elite perimeter defense. Marking Doncic could prove to be a difficult task, considering that the former Dallas star can effortlessly score 25 or 30 points. This could also be a bounce-back game for Kessler if Portland’s defense key in on Doncic and Reaves. Overall, we’re backing the Lakers to win and cover the -2.5 spread.
Our prediction for Los Angeles Lakers vs Portland Trail Blazers: LA Lakers to win.
