Discussed on Cash That The Los Angeles Lakers face off once against against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night. I’m going to bet on Luka to continue his strong play. Luka has been absolutely outrageous lately and is doing so with dominant Usage. On the season, he averages 22.4 FGA on 36% Usage. Over his last 6 games, he’s at 26.3 FGA and 38.6% Usage. He is the offense. This includes a 36 point game against the Rockets last time out. Luka is a bit of a streaky player; however, with that volume, the shot variance is almost always playing out. Luka should be able to find success here again. The Rockets expect Alperen Sengun back today but that does not improve their defense, especially if his back is still bothering him at all. Plus, as good as the Rockets’ defense is, they continue to struggle against PnR Ball handlers. I’ll back Luka to score on Wednesday night.
