LeBron James Over 7.5 Assists (-145)
LeBron James has been a consistent playmaker for the Lakers this season, and his assists prop at 7.5 is a promising bet for the over. Statistically, James is averaging 7.44 assists per game this season, which is just under the line. However, when looking at his performance against the Suns, he averages 8.67 assists, surpassing the prop line. Moreover, his last 10 games show an upward trend, with an average of 8.4 assists, indicating that he’s been increasingly focused on distributing the ball. The narrative supports this as well; with the Lakers’ offense often running through James, and given the potential absence of other key playmakers due to injuries, LeBron will likely take on an even greater role in facilitating the offense, which should result in him hitting the over on assists.
LeBron James Over 1.5 Three Pointers (-180)
LeBron James’ three-pointers prop stands at a line of 1.5, and the over is a strong bet considering his shooting performance this season. James is averaging 2.14 three-pointers per game, which comfortably clears the prop line. His accuracy from beyond the arc has been a highlight, shooting 39.7% from three-point range. In the context of the Lakers’ matchup against the Suns, James has historically performed well, and with the Suns’ defense having to account for multiple threats on the Lakers’ roster, LeBron is likely to find opportunities to shoot from deep. Additionally, the Lakers’ recent emphasis on creating open perimeter shots should provide James with the chances he needs to hit at least two three-pointers in the game, making the over an attractive pick.
