FULL ANALYSIS

OKC -15.5 looks inflated with Jalen Williams out (-13.8% team hit) vs LAL -6.9% sans Doncic; Pinnacle de-vig fair value 52% LAL cover (away +EV) + sharp 3.3% spread edge away. Whales extreme home ML but default to sharp/Pinnacle divergence. Total over sharp 20.4% but cap conf (totals 48.4% WR); ML PASS at -1100 juice.

SHARP MONEY

Spread sharp edge 3.3% away (strong), total over 20.4% (strong); outweighs whale home ML
