Analysis

Marcus Smart Points Prop is currently Over/Under 8.5 (+113/-115).

The money has been on the Under as it opened 8.5 @ -105 before it was bet down to 8.5 @ -115.

Key Factors

Favors Over

With respect to scoring, the Los Angeles Lakers's fantastic 120.7 points per game measures as the 6th-best in the league over the last 10 games.
This year when they are on the road, the other team's starting SFs have attempted 3.5 foul shots per game (6th-highest in the NBA) vs. the Houston Rockets, making it fairly effortless to draw fouls.

Favors Under

This year when they are the visiting squad, the other team's starting SFs have averaged 26.1% on three-pointers (2nd-weakest in the league) against the Houston Rockets, making this a difficult matchup.
The 4th-slowest pace-of-play away team in the NBA over the last 5 games has been the Lakers.
The Los Angeles Lakers are expected to see a decline in possessions today from competing against the 2nd-slowest pace offense in the league this year (the Rockets).
The Lakers check in as the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 25 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate further opportunities for scoring and assists).
