Paul George has been a sensation, averaging 2.7 steals per game, which ranks fourth in the league. With their impressive performance, it will be challenging for the Lakers to dominate the Hallway Series.

Over 218.5

Both LA teams, the Lakers and the Clippers, have been doing their best in terms of scoring this season. Anthony Davis of the Lakers is doing exceptionally well in grabbing rebounds. He’s ranked third in the league with 13.8 rebounds per game, showing his ability to help his team secure possession of the ball.

For the Clippers, Ivica Zubac has an impressive field goal percentage of 73.9%, and this efficiency in scoring in the paint is a significant asset for the team.

Rebounding is also in favour of the Lakers, as they grab an average of 44.8 rebounds per game. Additionally, they have good teamwork, with 25.5 assists per game.

With these strengths and differences, the Battle of LA is shaping up to be an exciting and action-packed showdown between two competitive teams.

LA Clippers Over 105.5

Although the Lakers have traditionally been known for their defensive strength, this season, the LA Clippers have made a name for themselves as an offensive force. In fact, in the three games they’ve played so far, they’ve consistently scored at least 118 points.

They recorded a 123-111 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers, a close 120-118 loss to the Utah Jazz, and most recently, they dominated the San Antonio Spurs with a commanding 123-83 win.

This offensive strength from the LA Clippers is certainly a noteworthy development this season and adds an interesting dimension to the competitive landscape of the league.

The Lakers will miss some of their players with Cam Reddish and Rui Hachimura listed as doubtful.

On the other hand, Jarred Vanderbilt, who is dealing with a heel injury, had a recent evaluation by team doctors, and the verdict is that he will be re-evaluated in two weeks. As of now, he won’t be able to participate in the game. Additionally, Jalen Hood-Schifino will not be available for this game.
