The San Antonio Spurs (36-16) take on the Los Angeles Lakers (32-19) in Crypto.com Arena Tuesday. Tip-off from Los Angeles, California, is set for 10:30 p.m. ET (NBA TV). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NBA odds around the Spurs vs. Lakers odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: San Antonio leads 2-1

San Antonio beat the Dallas Mavericks 138-125 Saturday while covering as an 11.5-point home favorite as the Over (233.5) cashed. G Stephon Castle went off for 40 points, 12 boards, 12 assists, and 3 steals in the win. The Spurs have won 4 straight and have scored over 130 points in back-to-back games.

Los Angeles lost 119-110 to the Oklahoma City Thunder Monday while failing to cover as a 6.5-point home underdog with the Over (222.5) hitting. G Luka Doncic missed that contest due to a hamstring injury, and his presence was missed as the Lakers hit fewer 3-pointers and free throws than OKC. The Lakers still allowed for 7 Thunder players to score in double figures, in spite of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander not playing in that matchup.

The Spurs routed the Lakers 107-91 on Jan. 7, covering as 9-point home favorites as the Under (233.5) hit. The Spurs dominated 66-40 in paint points while holding the Lakers to 40% shooting from the field and 23% from deep in the win. After winning the opening matchup 118-116, the Lakers have lost back-to-back games to the Spurs by double digits (132-119 in the other game).

Spurs at Lakers picks and predictionsPrediction

Spurs 115, Lakers 106

PASS.

The Spurs will win and cover here as -350 favorites, especially if Doncic is still out, but they are not worth the risk of betting on as such heavy favorites here. Pass and bet on the spread and/or total instead.

LEAN SPURS -9.5 (-105).

The line makes me think that Doncic will not be able to suit up here, and if that’s the case, the Lakers won’t have enough offensive firepower to keep this one close against San Antonio. Expect the Spurs to simply look like the much better team if Doncic is out.

San Antonio has covered the spread in 3 of its last 4 overall and in 3 of its last 4 road games. The Spurs are also 6-4 ATS in their last 10 matchups against the Lakers, having covered in back-to-back meetings.

This is a lean because the Lakers are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 games.

BET UNDER 226.5 (-105).

The Under has hit in 6 of LA’s last 10 overall, including in 2 of the Lakers’ last 3 home games. For San Antonio, the Under is 7-3 in its last 10 games, hitting in 4 of its last 5 at home. The Under is also a dominant 32-21 for the Spurs this season.

Look for San Antonio to flex its defense and rebounding here, making it tough for LA to score in the half-court or get any second-chance opportunities.
