Timberwolves @ Lakers [ Lakers -4.5 / 216.5 ]

Timberwolves | 49-33 (59.8%)
Lakers | 50-32 (61%)

Our Baller Exclusive NBA base model is a blend of several regressions, weighted to different cross-sections of the season. These regressions take into consideration stats like offensive rating, defensive rating, pace, and a variety of other factors that we feel are important in making up a team's numeric profile. While it does not factor in situations, historic matchups, and schedule into account, it is a good place to start when thinking about a particular matchup.

Our base model gives the Lakers (-4.5) a 45-44.4% chance of covering as a favorite, and projects the game going over 216.5 around 41.7-34.3% of the time, depending on how much you weight season-long vs. recent data, respectively. Looking at how the teams perform at home / on the road, the Lakers have a 51% chance of covering as a favorite at home, and the game has a 42.9% chance of going over the total.
