What to Know
The Brooklyn Nets might have tired legs after a matchup yesterday as they head on the road against the Los Angeles Lakers at 9:30 p.m. ET Nov. 13 at Crypto.com Arena. Brooklyn will be strutting in after a victory while Los Angeles will be stumbling in from a loss.
The Nets didn’t have too much trouble with the Los Angeles Clippers on the road this past Saturday as they won 110-95. It was another big night for Brooklyn’s power forward Kevin Durant, who had 27 points in addition to six boards.
Meanwhile, the Lakers were within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap this past Friday as they fell 120-114 to the Sacramento Kings. Los Angeles’ defeat came about despite a quality game from center Anthony Davis, who posted a double-double on 24 points and 14 rebounds along with three blocks.
Barring any buzzer beaters, Brooklyn is expected to win a tight contest Sunday. They are currently five-for-five against the spread in their most recent games, a trend bettors might want to take into account.
Los Angeles’ defeat took them down to 2-10 while Brooklyn’s win pulled them up to 6-7. Allowing an average of 116.42 points per game, the Lakers haven’t exactly asserted themselves on the defensive end. We’ll see if they can patch up the holes in their defense before their upcoming game.
