The Lakers just played Tuesday in what was a 116-102 loss to the Cavaliers. Anthony Davis left that game early with an illness and has been ruled out against the Raptors. LeBron James (ankle) also won’t play, while Patrick Beverley (knee) is listed as doubtful. The Raptors have the seventh-best defensive rating in the league, so the Lakers might be hard-pressed to even score 100 points in this matchup. The Raptors have also played at the seventh-slowest pace in the league, which has contributed to them scoring at least 120 points in a game only four times all season. In total, they have averaged 110.8 points scored per game. The spread has ballooned to a scary large number, so I’ll play it another way and take the under.
