Updated Jan. 28, 2022 10:29 a.m. ET

As we near the end of another January in the books of the NBA season, Los Angeles Lakers bettors rejoice as Anthony Davis returns from injury. Will his return stop the dip, right the ship, and bring back a chip to L.A.?

In the Eastern Conference, can James Harden shoulder the load for the Brooklyn Nets while Kevin Durant sits and Kyrie Irving plays part-time? Have the Philadelphia 76ers' odds shortened given Joel Embiid's recent MVP-like streak?

*Odds as of 1/27/22

A few things that stand out:

The Lakers have gotten back to .500 ball with the return of Anthony Davis. If L.A. can get it together, expect these odds to shorten considerably.
Even though they have slid to fourth in the East standings, the Nets are still oddsmakers' overwhelming favorite to hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy.
The Cavaliers' odds have shortened to +5000 as they sit 1.5 games behind top spot in the East.
