The Lakers are finally on the board with their first win of the season. Can they make it two in a row? We break it down in our Pelicans-Lakers picks.
The Pelicans traded Anthony Davis to the Lakers more than three years ago, and while L.A. did win a title, it seems that New Orleans came out on the stronger side of the deal.
The Pelicans are cruising right now with a 4-2 record, while the Lakers just picked up their first win of the year, which came against Denver. Now, they'll try for a second win in as many games, and may have to do so without Davis.
Here are our Pelicans-Lakers NBA picks for Wednesday (odds via FanDuel and PointsBet; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).
