MIT Simulator - NBA Friday Suns vs Lakers O/U Winner
MIT Simulator Score - Phoenix 115.97, LA Lakers 112.81 - Projected Total Points: 228.78 - Current O/U: 218.5 - Variance to O/U: 10.28 - MIT Simulator shows Edge Factor of 10.28 points. Value in double digits. Projected box-score shows Suns and Lakers combining for 19 three pointers, 66 two pointers, 40 free throws. Key factors noted: Lonzo Ball struggled in his debut with Lakers but will shoot much better with not having to face a star defender like Patrick Beverly. In terms of pace in a game, both of these teams were among the fastest in the league last season in terms of shot totals. The Suns ranked 2nd with 88.5 field goal attempts per game and the Lakers were 6th with 87.4 field goal attempts per game. Both teams had very poor season openers on the offensive end which makes that a point of emphasis with both coaches tonight. Phoenix O/U is 6-2 after scoring 85 points or less. Projected box-score made shots (as detailed above) equates to 229 points per MIT Simulator. Play: OVER
