The Rockets acquired Kevin Durant this offseason, but it will take time to gel on that side for Houston. Meanwhile, the Thunder have the same core returning, led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who averaged 32.7 points last season. SportsLine’s model has the Thunder covering the spread in 70% of simulations. Bet Thunder to cover at FanDuel Sportsbook:
Warriors vs. Lakers (+2.5) (-106)

The Lakers went 13-3 ATS in division games last year and 28-16 ATS as the home team. Los Angeles also won three of the four games played against the Warriors last season, including two victories by eight-plus points. Meanwhile, Golden State was 5-11 ATS in division games last campaign. SportsLine’s model thinks the Lakers cover the spread in 58% of simulations. Bet Lakers to cover at FanDuel Sportsbook now:
