Best LeBron James Player Props Bets vs. the Dallas Mavericks
As the Los Angeles Lakers gear up to face the Dallas Mavericks, all eyes are on LeBron James, who has been a pivotal force for the team. Despite being listed as day-to-day, James’ performance will be crucial in this matchup, especially after the Lakers’ recent victory in the NBA in-season tournament. His ability to influence the game on both ends of the floor will be key against a strong Mavericks side led by Luka Doncic.
LeBron James Over 6.5 Assists (-135)
LeBron James has been a consistent playmaker for the Lakers this season, averaging 6.52 assists per game. His vision and passing ability are critical to the Lakers’ offense, and against the Mavericks, he has historically performed well, averaging 7 assists in their matchups. Moreover, the Lakers’ recent form, including their in-season tournament success, has been partly due to James’ ability to distribute the ball effectively. With several key players on the injury list for both teams, LeBron’s role as a facilitator becomes even more significant, as the Lakers may rely on his experience and leadership to navigate through the Mavericks’ defense. Given these factors, there’s a strong case to be made for LeBron to exceed the assists line, especially considering his last 5 games average of 7.2 assists per game, showing an uptrend in his playmaking duties.
LeBron James Over 15.5 Rebounds & Assists (-110)
LeBron James’ combined contributions in rebounds and assists have been instrumental for the Lakers. While his season average for rebounds and assists sits slightly below the line at 14.17, he has shown the ability to elevate his game against tougher opponents. The Mavericks present such a challenge, and with the Lakers’ roster dealing with injuries, LeBron’s role in crashing the boards and facilitating the offense is expected to increase. His performance against the Mavericks historically has been strong, with an average of 16 combined rebounds and assists in these contests. Additionally, the Lakers’ recent form and LeBron’s leadership in their tournament victory suggest he is in a position to take on more responsibility and exceed his averages.
