Crypto.com roommates the Los Angeles Lakers and LA Clippers play for the fourth and final time this season. The Lakers lead the series 2-1.
Both teams last played on Sunday with the Lakers losing 113-123 to the Suns while the Clippers lost 107-123 to the Kings.
Season Series
Although the Lakers hold the all-time record between the clubs with 152 victories in 238 matches, the Clippers have owned their Crypto.com roommates for the past several seasons.
To wit, last season the Clippers swept the Lakers and were unbeaten in the last three seasons (11 straight victories) until the recent Lakers wins.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Tuesday, January 27th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Wednesday, February 28th
Los Angeles Lakers
As the Lakers hit the stretch run they’ve set their sights on moving up to the sixth seed. The Pelicans and Suns hold the fifth and sixth seeds with a 3.5-game lead over Los Angeles while the Kings have a 3.0 game margin and the Mavericks hold a 2.5-game edge.
Making the task more daunting is the Lakers can’t seem to get fully healthy and relying on 39-year-old LeBron James to shoulder heavy minutes while nursing a sore ankle isn’t fair or logical.
Lakers Stats
LA ranks 18th offensively (114.5), and 16th defensively (115.1), with a minus net differential of -0.6 ranking 19th overall.
The Lakers ride the middle ground when betting against the spread with a 27-33 record to this point in the season.
Lakers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- LeBron James, SF (questionable — ankle)
- Anthony Davis, PF (probable — Achilles)
- Christian Wood, PF (OUT indefinitely— knee)
- Jarred Vanderbilt, SF (OUT indefinitely —foot)
- Cam Reddish, SG (questionable — ankle)
- Gabe Vincent, PG (OUT indefinitely —knee)
- Max Christie, SG (upgraded to questionable—ankle)
LA Clippers
Just as it seemed like the Clippers were finally fully healthy and about to make a charge toward the top of the West’s ladders they’ve seemingly taken a dip.
Through the last seven contests, they are 3-4 and appear to be back to resting Kawhi Leonard or Paul George sporadically again. George is listed as out for this match due to a knee issue.
In their most recent loss to the Kings, the Clippers had arguably their worst performance in a month.
Clippers Stats
LA has climbed offensively now ranking fifth (119.1), and 13th defensively (114.6) while their net differential is plus +4.5 which ranks sixth in the association.
Through 56 contests the Clippers are starting to improve against the spread with a 29-27 record.

Free Los Angeles Lakers vs. LA Clippers NBA Prediction:
Although the crowd at Crypto.com will likely be filled with just as many (if not more) Lakers fans, it’s the former who’ve owned LA winning the last seven matches they were hosting.
Both squads have stumbled a bit recently but for some reason Leonard always raises his level of play when facing LeBron. Take the Clippers to win and cover.
