In the previous game, the Suns lost to the Houston Rockets, 119-105. Jalen Green contributed 15 points, but he is questionable with knee soreness. Dillon Brooks added 10 points, and he will look to step up in the absence of Booker.

The Lakers have Luka Dončić out with a hamstring injury, and Austin Reaves will also miss the rest of the regular season due to an oblique injury. Marcus Smart and Jaxson Hayes are questionable for the next game. The team will need to adjust without these key players.
BTB Betting Pick
The Suns are favored by 1.5 points against the Lakers. The Suns average 112.8 points per game, while the Lakers average 116.3 points per game. Given the Suns’ strong defense, allowing only 111.3 points per game, and the Lakers’ weaker defense, the Suns are likely to cover the spread. Our projected score is Suns 114, Lakers 110.
The total for the game is set at 220.5 points. The Suns’ defense is solid, and they allow only 111.3 points per game. The Lakers score 116.3 points per game but face a tough Suns defense. With both teams having a slower pace, the under 220.5 seems likely. Our projected total is 224 points, which suggests a slight lean towards the over. However, considering the defensive stats, under 220.5 is a safer bet.
