Has hit in the last 8 games these two teams have played. Don’t love the juice but I think this line moves up closer to tip. MPJ rebounds vs. the Lakers: 9/7/10/7/10/10/12/8 On top of that, MPJ has cleared this line in 4/L5 games (11/12/7/5/11) and the Lakers are giving up the fourth-most rebounds to opposing small forwards over the last 30 days. * Jamal Murray is questionable so I looked into games where Murray missed (in case he is ruled out) and MPJ has cleared this line in 8/L10 games w/o Jamal Murray in the lineup
