Additionally, I took UTH ML when it was still at +150 this morning for 4 units. When most of the board likes a play that's usually a bad sign. But, I can't see how the LAL are the play. As bad as UTH has been on the road this year, the Lakers are really hurting right now.
Kendall Marshall, who was in the NBA Development League a couple of weeks ago, will start for the Lakers at point guard. Obviously, this isn't what the team had in mind when they signed Jordan Farmar in the off-season as the franchise's third point guard.
Wesley Johnson is expected to play after battling gastroenteritis, but will probably come off the bench.
Jodie Meeks will try to play backup point guard behind Marshall.
