LAL vs HOU Dream11 Match Prediction
The Lakers will take on the Rockets on their home floor and will be buoyed after a great season to season. The Lakers have faced a bit of trouble staving off a relatively young team in the Bulls. Rockets will be more confident now after a drubbing they handed over to the Magic. If LeBron James is available for the next game then the Lakers will certainly have an advantage over the Rockets, but if James Harden takes off for a great night then the Rockets may be able to sneak one. Christian Wood and John Wall will be key in this game against the Lakers.
Los Angeles Lakers vs Houston Rockets, Key Players:
LeBron James
PPG: 24.6
RPG: 8.4
RPG: 7.8
LeBron James is having a spectacular season and that is not a surprise at all considering he was practically the best player in the decade that passed. He has done a tremendous job of leading the Lakers and has been incredible in all aspects of the game. The King has taken the mantle in absence of Anthony Davis who has been out every now and then. He posted 28 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists in the win against the Chicago Bulls. The Finals MVP always makes a sure-hit as the Super-Player pick in the Dream11 Fantasy basketball showdown.
James Harden
PPG: 27.0
APG: 11.3
RPG: 4.7
James Harden and Houston Rockets are in an awkward position after the superstar and former-MVP requested a trade to the Front Office. He admitted that the team chemistry is low and the performances of players have not been up-to-mark because of that. Despite all these issues, Harden has posted incredible numbers and in his last game, he posted 15 points, 13 assists, 5 rebounds, and 1 block. He can be considered as a Pro-Player pick in the fantasy scenario.
Anthony Davis
PPG: 22.4
RPG: 9.1
APG: 3.5
SPG: 1.5
BPG: 1.4
Ant-Davis did not play in the game against the Bulls but he may participate in the fixture against the Houston Rockets. He and LeBron James remain the most formidable duo in the League and there is not a stronger SF-PF combination. He posted 23 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks, and 1 steal in his last game against the Spurs.
Christian Wood
PPG: 23.8
RPG: 10.8
BPG: 2.0
Christian has been a sweet surprise for the Rockets and he is a candidate for the Most Improved Player earlier in the season. Wood has had a lot of impact on both ends of the court and is a force in the paint. He is coming off 22 points, 15 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 steal outing against the Magic, and has posted similar numbers throughout the season.
Sleeper Picks:
Dennis Schroeder: Schroeder has been an electric presence for the Lakers and is having a great season averaging 14.9 PPG, 4.8 APG, and 4.0 RPG at the point guard position. He registered 17 points, 6 assists, 3 rebounds, and 2 steals in the win against the Bulls and it will not be a surprise if he comes up with such a performance again.
John Wall: John Wall has been dynamic at the PG position for the Rockets, recording a stellar 21.2 PPG, 5.2 APG, and 4.6 RPG so far. He lodged 14 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 assists in the win against the Magic. His return has shored up the Point Guard position for the Rockets.
Eric Gordon: The veteran Shooting Guard has been a consistent scorer and is averaging 16.6 PPG for the Rockets. He had a tough night against the Orlando Magic, registering 5 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, and 1 block in the Houston win
Note
Marc Gasol leads the Lakers in blocks with 1.5 BPG.
Montrezl Harrell is averaging 12.6 PPG and 8.0 RPG off the bench for the Lakers.
David Nwaba is averaging 9.2 PPG for the Rockets.
