Kevin Durant Over 26.5 Points (-120)

Kevin Durant’s scoring ability is nothing short of remarkable, and his points prop at 26.5 is a figure he’s surpassed with relative ease this season. With a season average of 29.63 points per game and hitting the over on this prop 76.67% of the time, Durant’s offensive prowess is well-documented. Moreover, against the Lakers, Durant has been even more dominant, averaging 36 points per game in their matchups, which suggests that the Lakers’ defense has had trouble containing him. The Lakers have also been allowing high shooting percentages from the perimeter, which plays into Durant’s strengths as a shooter. Given these statistics and the fact that the Lakers are dealing with several injuries that could affect their defensive efficiency, there’s a strong case to be made for Durant to exceed the 26.5 points threshold once again.

Kevin Durant Over 37.5 Points, Rebounds & Assists (-145)

Durant’s all-around game makes the Points, Rebounds & Assists prop at 37.5 another attractive pick for the over. His season average for this combined prop stands at 41.9, clearing the line 70% of the time. When looking at his performance against the Lakers specifically, Durant’s average jumps to 48.67, indicating that he steps up in these high-profile games. Additionally, Durant’s last 10 games average of 40.0 and his last 5 games average of 41.4 for this prop suggest that he is in excellent form. With the Lakers’ defense not at its best and the Suns’ need to establish rhythm and chemistry among their star players, Durant is likely to be heavily involved in the Suns’ offensive plays, both scoring and setting up his teammates. This involvement should see him play a significant role in the Suns’ performance, making it likely that he will surpass the prop line for Points, Rebounds & Assists.
