Utah Jazz at LA Lakers Free Betting Tips

It's Luka time! We are concentrating our minds on what has become the most anticipated game of the season so far, the debut of Luka Doncic for the LA Lakers.

Utah Jazz at LA Lakers - match centre

Two outta three ain't bad, our game bets both romped home, with a game total of 245, and the Lakers winning by 19 points, our Luka bet missed, #77 got 4 assists in a decent-but-not-spectacular debut which saw him sit out the entire 4th quarter as a precaution, and to completely f*ck our bet.

$30 in stakes turned into $38.10 of returns for a 27% profit is a nice result, even if Lazy Luke screwed our Assists bet.

Over 234.5 at odds of 1.88

Absolutely tonnes going on at the Lakers who are averaging 126 points per game across this W5 streak. We've got Doncic trade and debut, Davis exit, Williams trade then cancel, LeBron having a rest on Saturday and of course Austin Reaves scoring 45 against the Pacers. Then you've got Utah conceding 131 points per game in their last three. Nothing is guaranteed in the NBA, but Over 234.5 is a very decent bet.

Lakers (-12.5) at odds of 1.93

if you can get -12.5 snap call it immediately. Many sportsbooks are already at 13.5 and we imagine the game will go off at 14.5. Lakers are W5 and covered the spread in all five. Jazz have covered in three of their last nine. Luka, King James and Reaves, we can see LAL hitting north of 135 points, Utah will get nowhere near that. A twenty point margin wouldn't be surprising.

Luka Doncic Over 7.5 Assists at odds of 2.04

We can't possibly NOT include Luka! Like the Handicap bet above, snap call if you can find 7.5 Assists, many books are listing at 8.5. Doncic will be in full on supply train mode tonight, we can expect big scores from Reaves and James. A Luke Double-Double is very much on the cards as he averages almost 11 against bottom third defenses.
