Key facts

• LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Lonnie Walker III are out for the Lakers
• Clint Capela is out for the Hawks
• The Lakers have won 3 of the last 5 against the Hawks

The LA Lakers have picked up their form lately winning 4 of the last 5 games. Still, that has not moved them up in the standings since they had a terrible start of the season. Now with James and Davis being out, things get even more difficult for them. Dennis Schroeder has used the absence of James to lead the Lakers in the last game with 32 points and he will have a chance to go against his former team when the Hawks visit LA. Atlanta was in a deep hole losing 4 straight but bounced back with a win in Sacramento. John Collins has returned to his form and he is the player that will make the difference in this game. Trae Young will score his portion of the points and Bogdan Bogdanovic is a sharpshooter who enjoys shining on big scenes. The Hawks arew favorites to win this one but just in case I will add +2.5 handicap on them.
