Our Los Angeles Lakers vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
Los Angeles is the small favorite in this game; however, Portland looks to be the best betting option. As good as the Lakers have been this season, they have already lost to this Trail Blazers team. In fact, Portland beat Los Angeles in Los Angeles in late October by a score of 136-127.
As mentioned, the Trail Blazers are a perfect 5-0 on the road this season and are 5-2 against the spread, which includes the win against the Lakers. Los Angeles will likely play Portland closer in this game, but given the early success for the Trail Blazers, especially in the first meeting with the Lakers, our Los Angeles Lakers vs. Portland Trail Blazers prediction is: Portland Trail Blazers +2.5.
