Raptors vs. Lakers Prediction: Lakers -4.5

The Raptors have lost two of their last three games, and in those losses, they struggled on defense. They will struggle again against Doncic and the Lakers, who have also lost two of their last three games after starting the season 3-0. At home, L.A. will play a solid game and shoot the ball better than they did in their last game. The Lakers will get the win and cover the spread, sending the Raptors to their third loss in four games.
