Randy’s Pick

The Lakers and points are intriguing given their current form, but they’re on the end of a back to back and LeBron has been dealing with a calf issue despite playing through it. The Philadelphia 76ers are rested, and they’re 6-3 SU at home with an 11-5 ATS record on the season. The 76ers have also won 6 straight games against the Lakers and 9 of the last 10 meetings overall. The 76ers make bettors money, and getting them at home with the rest edge is hard to pass up. I’ll lay the buckets.
