Indiana continues its West Coast road trip in the Crypto.com Arena against the Los Angeles Lakers, which just rattled off a gutsy home win against the Utah Jazz.

Indiana Pacers at Los Angeles Lakers Prediction
With the Lakers missing the services of Anthony Davis, the Pacers should have the edge inside as LA has no one who can defend Domantas Sabonis in post-up situations. Indiana also have different bodies that they can throw at LeBron James to make him a bit more uncomfortable in the half court.
That being said, the Lakers have momentum on their side, especially at home. Motivated to gain ground in the West and catch up to the competition, look for Los Angeles to prevail at home by pulling away in a gritty fourth quarter, with a strong performance from Pacers killer LeBron James, of course.
