Hello, Lakers Nation. Welcome in to the Lakers Nation.com podcast.

My name's Trevor Lane, and it's game day, Lakers Jazz.

Tonight, final game before the All-Star break, Lakers take on the Utah Jazz in Utah at 6 p.m.

Pacific time.

Join me over on YouTube.com slash Lakers Nation as well as playback.com slash Lakers Nation during the game. We hang out.

We watch the game, do a little play-by-play, talk through everything. It's a good time. So come

hang out during Lakers Jazz tonight. Now, as of right now, the Lakers, according to our friends over at

Bette U.S., they are an eight and a half point favorite against the Utah Jazz.

Yes, they were a heavier favorite at home, which you would expect, but there's also going

to be some players missing for the Lakers tonight.

And I'm going to get into the injury report in just a moment.

But right now, the Lakers, an eight and a half point favorite, and then the over under 236 and a half points

combined for these two teams.

Even with the Lakers not having a full lineup here, they are going to be the favorites

coming in against a Utah team that they're, let's say they're building for the future.

That's what this team's looking to do.

The Lakers had no issues with them the other night.

And I would expect L.A. to find a way to get a win. But I will say this, sometimes,

sometimes this is a trap game. The last game before the All-Star break, the guys have been

playing all season long that you don't get much of a break.

And now here it is an opportunity to actually get some rest.

And sometimes you get guys that are looking ahead to the all-star break.
