Match analysis
The Lakers play at Golden State on the second night of a back-to-back, a day after their 103-87 win over the Clippers, while the Warriors come in on two days of rest. Superior's projection weighs that gap and has Golden State winning 113-112, a 225-point game that sits well inside Under 248.5 points, Including Overtime.
Three of the last ten went past 248
Neither side is a stranger to a shootout. Portland beat the Lakers 136-129 in Los Angeles on 28 October, 265 points, the Lakers won 132-123 at Utah on 25 October, and Golden State lost 131-122 at Phoenix the same night. All three cleared this line. The other seven games in the two teams' last fives finished between 190 and 248, the top of that range a 134-114 Warriors win in Denver.
Memphis scored 111 at Golden State
The Warriors' only home game in that run was a 111-108 defeat by Memphis on 24 October, a 219-point night, and four of their last five came on the road. Home court and the Lakers' missing day of rest are what tilt the projection one point toward Golden State, with both teams landing in the low 110s rather than the 130s of those high nights.
