The Lakers being on the second game of a back-to-back concerns me a bit heading into this game. But I'm going to lay the points with the Lakers anyway, as they should be able to get the better of Phoenix whether or not LeBron James takes the floor. There just isn't enough around Devin Booker right now to beat the league's best teams and that should remain the case in the final game on the schedule in the NBA on Monday night.
