Best LeBron James Player Props Bets vs. Thunder
The Los Angeles Lakers are set to host the Oklahoma City Thunder in a highly anticipated matchup. All eyes will be on LeBron James, who is expected to return from a day-to-day ankle injury. With the Lakers’ recent struggles and the Thunder’s impressive form, James’ performance will be critical. His ability to impact the game across multiple statistical categories will be a key factor in whether the Lakers can overcome the Thunder’s challenge.
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 one where the over has a strong chance of hitting. Over the last 10 games, James has averaged 8.4 assists, showing his ability to distribute the ball effectively. Moreover, with the Lakers’ need for a strong performance to bounce back from recent losses, James will likely take on a more active role in orchestrating the offense. His ability to find open teammates and create scoring opportunities, especially if Anthony Davis is playing, will be crucial against the Thunder’s defense. The statistical trend, combined with James’ probable return and the Lakers’ situation, suggests that he will exceed the assists line.
LeBron James Over 1.5 Three Pointers (-190)
LeBron James’ three-pointers prop is set at 1.5, and the over is again a promising pick. Despite a slight dip in his last five games, James has maintained a season average of 2.08 three-pointers per game, which is well above the line. Additionally, in the last 10 games, he’s averaged 1.9 three-pointers, indicating that he’s still shooting from beyond the arc with frequency. Given that the Lakers may rely on his scoring to keep up with the Thunder’s potent offense, James will likely have the green light to shoot from distance. His ability to stretch the floor and the Lakers’ potential game plan to utilize his shooting prowess make the over on his three-pointers an attractive bet.
