The Warriors have won the last three meetings with Los Angeles, all of which came last season with two coming by at least 14 points. These are different times, though, and the Lakers may be a touch more desperate to achieve victory than the opposition currently. The visitors have also covered in three of their last four games away from Crypto.com Arena, and those three covers came by shorter spreads than the one Los Angeles is facing on Wednesday.
The moneyline being at plus money for the Lakers is also enough to help project an upset here. It was back in 2019 when the road team last prevailed more times than the home side on Christmas, so Los Angeles will need to buck the trend here.

Three of the four games between the Lakers and Warriors reached an OVER last season, but Los Angeles has hit an UNDER in three consecutive road games, and both teams currently rank in the bottom-third of the league in offense per 100 possessions over their last six games, respectively.

Competing against the Warriors has historically brought the best out of LeBron James, which rang especially true in 2023-24 when he averaged a ridiculous triple-double of 36.3 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 10.6 assists across three meetings.
We're working for a big payoff here by anticipating an actual triple-double for the 39-year-old forward, who just recorded one on Monday in a loss to the Detroit Pistons with a line of 28-11-11. Who knows how many more Christmas games we're getting out of the four-time league Most Valuable Player, so James may look to maximize his production here with another memorable holiday showcase and his ninth triple-double of the season.
