We’re targeting a second-half bet in Game 2 of the Lakers-Nuggets Western Conference first-round playoff series.
Los Angeles started the game hot, taking a 33-25 lead after the first quarter. But the Nuggets regained their stride through rebounding and beating the Lakers in transition.
The Lakers could’ve certainly used more from starting point guard D’Angelo Russell, who finished the game with 13 points on 6-of-20 shooting. He shot just 1-for-9 from beyond the arc. Per TeamRankings, Denver is seventh in rebounding with 52.4 per game. It’s worth noting that the Lakers particularly struggle on the offensive glass, ranking last with an average of 8.2.
Los Angeles will likely continue to sell out, hoping to leave the Mile High City with a series split.
