Free Sports Game Preview and Prediction: Golden State Warriors vs. Los Angeles Lakers
Thursday, February 06, 2025 10:00 PM
Play: Point Spread: -7.5/-110 Los Angeles Lakers
The Warriors made a huge move acquiring Jimmy Butler in exchange for Andrew Wiggins and some non-starters. Golden State is going to have to be a team with a defensive identity and we will see if there is anything else they can do prior to the deadline today but right now they are left a little shorthanded and are coming off a max effort last night to the Utah Jazz.
The Lakers are fresh off a blowout win over the Clippers and just went out and got Mark Williams from the Hornets by trading away Dalton Knecht and Cam Reddish. This is an excellent move for the Lakers to acquire a rim protector without losing anyone important. LA has a solid starting five available for this game and we fully expect LeBron to play in this game.
Take the Lakers to get the win and cover at home against a Warriors team that is floundering right now and has no identity and won’t be good until they get Jimmy in the door and get Kuminga back from injury. The Warriors are 3-5 ATS on no rest and the Lakers are 13-9 ATS at home.
