So I have decided to do something different today in this space. I am doing well on parlays overall in the SportsLine newsletter but seem to be getting burned here on add-on legs to bring a money line favorite into plus-money. Maybe I'm reaching on a player points or something.
Winning the sides no problem. So I'm gonna go with what I know: Simple two-leggers and I'll just focus on one game with the other essentially the kicker but that I feel much more confident about. And tonight, that main game is Los Angeles Lakers at Golden State.

Alas, LeBron is now in Philadelphia so tonight's matchup between the Pacific Division rivals in San Francisco isn't quite the same, but it gives me a chance to touch on Warriors rookie sensation Yaxel Lendeborg -- and it's also the start of the NBA Cup group play. This is the second game of an NBA on Prime Video doubleheader (a good Knicks vs. 76ers matchup is the first) with a 10 ET tip.

Yet he was upstaged by big man Walker Kessler in his Lakers debut as the 7-footer was 12-for-12 from the field for 26 points to go with nine boards. Those were the second-most shots without a miss in Lakers history, trailing only a 14-for-14 performance by Wilt Chamberlain in March 1969.
