NBA 5-PACK
(NBA) LA Lakers vs. Toronto,
Total: 218.00 | -105.00 Over
Result: Loss
The LA Lakers are coming off four straight wins and they're 8-2 SU and ATS through their last 10. Here they'll visit a Raptors side that has failed to cover the spread in three straight games home at Air Canada Centre, and I think the visitors are spotted way too many points to pass up on in this contest. LA has played terrific D lately and allowed an average of only 100.8 points - nearly nine below its season average - during the current winning streak. "You kind of either fold or you figure it out," coach Luke Walton said of his squad. "Our guys have seemed to figure it out, for now at least."

Under is 4-1 in Raptors last five overall and 7-1 in their last eight home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Under is 4-1 in Lakers last five road games and 5-1 in their last six vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

My selection is an 8* play on Under.
