The Denver Nuggets are facing elimination, down 3-1 in the series after taking a 114-108 loss in Game 4 on Thursday. While they've battled back from the same deficit in both their first-round series against Utah and again in the conference semifinals against the Clippers, they just have to be running out of steam pretty soon. Jamal Murray has been carrying the team throughout the playoffs, but he should be outmatched as LeBron James and Anthony Davis step up for Los Angeles.

Lakers are 1-1-1 ATS in the games they've won in this series but 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite.

8* play on Los Angeles Lakers ATS.
