Chip's NBA 'Vegas Hotline' Winner (Jazz/Lakers)
(NBA) Utah vs. LA Lakers,
Point Spread: 4.00 | 100.00 LA Lakers (Home)
Result: Loss
Utah at L.A. Lakers 10:30 ET
Lakers (+) over Jazz- Without Kobe Bryant the Los Angeles Lakers just don't have the scoring power needed in these fast paced NBA games. They have won just seven of their last 34 games and have not had a player score at least 30 points in their last 43 games and now their second leading scorer Nick Young is sidelined. But, they continue to play hard as eight of their last nine losses have been by seven points of less and their last 12 losses have been by single digits. Utah is off back-to-back as they were run down by the Wizards at home last night. Los Angeles is 8-0 ATS after a straight-up loss and the Jazz are 1-4 in their last five against teams with winning records below .400. Take the LAKERS!
