Understanding Public and Money
Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Matt's Analysis:
I don't usually like betting games this early, but the spread/moneyline on Tuesday's Game 5 back in the desert is going to rise with the news that Anthony Davis is not likely to play with his groin injury, so let's get it now before it does. Not a shock Davis will sit after seeing him go down Sunday. In games during the regular season when the Lakers had LeBron James but not Davis, they were just 1-6 SU vs. teams that went on to make the playoffs. Deandre Ayton should feast with no AD.
