🔎 Our NEW NBA player prop odds tool can help you find the best NBA odds across legal sportsbooks in your area!

🔥 LeBron James Over 5.5 Assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We love this pick for projection and market-based reasons. For one, James averaged 6.5 actual and 11.9 potential assists per game after the All-Star break. He is averaging only 4.7 and 8.7 to start this series, which is unusually low for him. Look for James’ averages to tick back up in closer accordance with what we saw from him in the regular season.

Further, we’re getting the over 5.5 for the very generous price of -105 at BetMGM. Sharp offshore books have the same bet priced at -135. DraftKings (-130) and FanDuel (-128) are much more in line with that price, so lock in the number through BetMGM before it gets bid off the board.

✅ Best odds: -105 via BetMGM ($10 to win $9.52)

🔥 Dorian Finney-Smith Over 6.5 Points ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Lakers have clearly decided to pivot away from Jaxson Hayes this series, which has resulted in a major uptick in usage for Finney-Smith. DFS is now averaging 33.3 minutes per game this series, but he has just six points per game to show for it. That said, he cleared the 6.5 points in two of three.

We expect DFS to see plenty of minutes in this one, and while he hasn’t been taking a ton of shots, he should see enough open looks to cash this Over. In the Lakers’ lone win, DFS logged a series-high 39 minutes, so don’t be surprised if JJ Redick takes note of this and uses the role player a bit more than in Games 1 and 3.

✅ Best odds: -118 via BetMGM ($10 to win $8.47)

🔥 Anthony Edwards Under 5.5 Assists ⭐⭐⭐

We love this pick, but the best odds (-140) aren’t good enough to get that excited about. Still, it’s a three-star pick because we believe the total is an assist too high. Edwards is averaging 5.7 actual and 9.7 potential assists per game this series, which is great, but he averaged only 4.6 actual and 8.5 potential assists in the regular season.

While there has been a meaningful uptick in volume for Edwards, his actual assists are up far more than his potential assists suggest they should be. Perhaps that’s why sharp offshores list this one at -160, edging the -140 you can find at our best sports betting apps.

✅ Best odds: -140 via BetMGM ($10 to win $7.14)
