After the team showed near-championship basketball in the in-season tournament, they quit playing and dropped from the top 4 to the bottom of the Western Conference play-in zone. The Lakers are still in 10th place with a 19-19 record, but as recent games have shown, they are starting to revive.
The Lakers approach the game with Phoenix after two straight wins. First, the Lakers took the battle for Los Angeles from the Clippers – 106:103 and then were stronger than Toronto – 132:131.
The Suns won four consecutive victories at the turn of December and January, but then they began to stumble again – three losses in four games. However, it’s worth paying attention to the level of the opponents. Phoenix beat Miami (113:97), lost to Memphis (115:121), and twice failed to cope with the Los Angeles Clippers (111:138, 122:131).
The Suns have a slightly better tournament position than the Lakers. With a balance of 19-18, Phoenix is in the eighth position in the Western Conference.
Phoenix still has a lot of problems – the Suns don’t move the ball well and have poor defense. The Lakers look very powerful at peak moments – LeBron and company win those games where they need a win, as a rule. The upcoming meeting belongs to the important category because, in case of success, the Lakers will catch up with Phoenix in the standings. So let’s bet on the fourth consecutive victory of LAL over the Suns this season.
