NBA Betting Preview New Orleans Pelicans vs Los Angeles Lakers
- Moneyline: +658 Pelicans vs Lakers -908
- Pointspread: +14 -105 Pelicans vs Lakers -14 -115
- Game time: NBA League Pass / Friday, April 4th, 2025 10:30 PM ET
- Location: Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, CA
The Lakers are drawing massive steam with 87.5% of the betting public hammering the -14 (-115) spread, and it’s easy to see why. L.A. has been a different beast at home, and with playoff form kicking in, expect LeBron and crew to flex hard under the lights.
The Pelicans limp into Crypto.com Arena outgunned and outmatched, with a shaky defense that could get lit up early. The moneyline is a monster, but the real action is on the spread—books can’t shade it fast enough.
This could turn into a blowout special, and the public’s already on it. Ride the momentum, lay the chalk, and look for L.A. to cruise to a double-digit cover.
