The L.A. Lakers look to conclude their longest road trip of the season with a fifth consecutive victory while trying for a sixth straight win over the Memphis Grizzlies.
NBA basketball betting lines have the Lakers listed as 2-point road favorites.
As Los Angeles looks to conclude an already successful trip on a positive note at Memphis, Kobe Bryant has a chance to bounce back from Sunday’s performance against a team he’s victimized with a big night once this season. Bryant scored 41 points and went 19 for 30 from the field in the Lakers’ 114-98 home win over the Grizzlies on Nov. 6.
Bryant’s averaging 33.0 points and shooting 51.5 percent in his last six games at Memphis, highlighted by a 60-point effort in a 121-119 Lakers victory there March 22, 2007.
Though the Grizzlies are 17-6 at home this season, Los Angeles has won its last four trips to FedExForum.
