We’ve got one heck of a night to look forward to in the NBA with ALL 30 teams in action and a HUGE 15-game slate to sink our teeth into. We’re just a couple of days away from the all-star break and teams will no doubt be giving it their all tonight to build some momentum. You can find out our NBA picks for all of tonight’s big games, while we also have an ESPN doubleheader with Spurs vs Celtics at 7:00 pm ET followed by Warriors vs Mavericks at 9:30 pm ET. We have a Spurs vs Celtics Same Game Parlay for that first matchup, but for now, let’s dive into my best NBA player props for tonight’s action-packed slate.
LeBron James (LAL) over 14.5 rebounds+assists (-120)
Odds available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
This is an automatic bet for me. LeBron James just played Utah on Monday and had 15 rebounds+assists through just the first 3 quarters. This game also has a scary spread of 8 and plenty of blowout potential, but LeBron has proven he can get to this number even if the Lakers dominate. James has 15 or more R+A in 11 of his last 12 games, with the 1 miss landing on the hook at 14. Luka Doncic should still be on somewhat of a minutes restriction, so LeBron should have moments on the court where he is the only real distributor. I expect a newly energized King James to make an impact on the glass while also getting his teammates involved. I will be shocked if this remains at 14.5 by tipoff and it’s the best of my NBA player props tonight. Let’s roll!
