The buzz is loud in this story made specifically for Hollywood. Well, almost. It would be nearly perfect if Anthony Davis was healthy. Regardless, Luka and the new look Lakers will welcome his former team to L.A for the first time since the blockbuster trade occurred a couple weeks ago.
Jumpman had some fun with this earlier today on Instagram posting a video of a 77 Texas license plate being changed to a 77 California license plate.. All while George Strait’s hit song “All My Ex’s Live in Texas” played in the background.
I was eager to see Luka’s player points prop for tonight as he faces the Mavs for the first time. Tonight he seems to be priced at 30.5 points and the vig is much heavier on the over. By comparison, Luka was priced at 25.5 points against the Nuggets over the weekend.
Those numbers certainly tell a story. Let’s see if reality matches the script.
