The Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns face off on Tuesday in an NBA game at the Footprint Center. WHen these two teams faced off on March 13th it was the Suns that won 140-111.
Los Angeles Lakers
The Lakers come into this game with a 31-47 record and they have gone 11-27 away from home. This is a team that looks like they will miss the tournament, and the injuries have been a big problem.
In the last game against the Denver Nuggets they were competitive in the first half but they struggled to defend in the second half and were defeated by 11 points. The Lakers have lost six games in a row.
LeBron James is dealing an ankle injury and it’s unclear if he will be able to go in this game after missing the last game. Anthony Davis also clearly isn’t 100 percent and even if he plays, he isn’t full strength. In this game if the Lakers want to win they are going to need the defense to be better.
Phoenix Suns
On the other side of this matchup is the Phoenix Suns who sit with a 62-16 record and they have gone 31-8 at home. Even though the Suns have had a strong season, they are coming off a bad loss in their last game. The offense could only manage 96 points and that led to the shocking loss.
Phoenix is averaging 114.9 points while their defense is giving up 107.1 points per game. Phoenix is shooting 48.7 percent from the field which is the top in the NBA. in this game the offense is going to need to be better.
Devin Booker is having another strong season averaging 26.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 4.9 assists per game. Chris Paul is also healthy again and he is averaging 14.9 points and 10.7 assists per game.

Free Los Angeles Lakers vs. Phoenix Suns NBA Analysis:
The Lakers were really awful in the last game and they are going to have issues again in this game. The Lakers defense is a problem and I believe the Suns are going to get their offense back on the right track. Even if the Lakers have Davis and LeBron in this game, they aren’t going to keep it close. Back the Suns against the spread.
