Since the Frenchman entered the NBA, matchups with Victor Wembanyama and LeBron James have been hyped up like crazy. Well, the 40-year-old is still out to begin the season as his Los Angeles Lakers host the 7-foot-4 (ish) center and the San Antonio Spurs. As the second game of the ESPN doubleheader, we’ve got our best Spurs vs. Lakers predictions for tonight.

Whether you end up liking the best bet from our Spurs vs. Lakers picks or not, you’ll be able to enjoy something else that we’ve shared - a guaranteed Onyx Odds promo code bonus for over 40 states in the nation (including TX and CA)!

Spurs vs. Lakers Predictions for NBA on ESPN, 11/5

Despite all the moving parts - primarily in terms of injuries - these are still two teams that are atop the Western Conference standings. Behind only the defending-champion Oklahoma City Thunder are the 5-1 Spurs and 6-2 Lakers! So, could our Spurs vs. Lakers predictions be for a Western Conference Finals preview?

Ok, that’s jumping the gun, but San Antonio just suffered their first loss on Sunday and hasn’t taken the court since. After taking over so many headlines to start the season, Wemby had perhaps the worst game of his career, not just this season. In 34 minutes, he scored just nine points and with nine rebounds as well, didn’t hit double digits in any stat category.

That’s an outlier performance for sure, but still noteworthy for your Spurs vs. Lakers picks. As for LA, while the LeBron James injury has been common knowledge since before the season even tipped off, we’ve also seen Luka Doncic miss time, not to mention Austin Reaves, who had as strong of a start as Wemby.

Oh yeah, and the Spurs have also started their season without De’Aaron Fox! The bottom line is that we won’t have the best of the best on the court or either team 100% healthy with who is out there, but it’s still our job to hook you up with a best bet from our Spurs vs. Lakers predictions!

 

 

 

Spurs vs. Lakers Best Bet: Victor Wembanyama Over 43.5 Points + Assists + Rebounds (-120 at Onyx Odds)

Last season, these Western Conference foes had their customary four-game series, and the Lakers came away with three victories. From a betting perspective, they also went 3-1 against the spread, and on top of that, the over was 3-1 in those games. Of course, there is one glaring omission with those Spurs vs. Lakers predictions.

That would be the fact that Victor Wembanyama missed the vast majority of the season with a shoulder injury. Even with him back on the court and no LeBron James, the Spurs vs. Lakers odds still favor LA at home. Well, we’re not going to be stressing about a winner of this game at all.

Instead, we’re just going to trust a Wemby bounce back. We noted his horrid performance on Sunday, but again, that is an outlier to say the least. Prior to that, the tall Frenchman had some incredible top-tier highlights with 24+ points and 11+ rebounds in each of the first five games of the season.

That included 40 points in his season opener. In his six games against the Lakers in his young career, he’s scored fewer than 20 points just once, and similarly, failed to record double-digit rebounds just once. Along with that is the fact that it now won’t be Anthony Davis defending him in the paint.

It all adds up to us locking in the best bet from our Spurs vs. Lakers predictions on Victor Wembanyama over 43.5 points + assists + rebounds (-120 at Onyx Odds).
