Best LeBron James prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
LeBron James O 1.5 Made Three-Pointers (-121)
Tonight is win-or-go-home for the Lakers and LeBron James should rise to the occasion. This postseason, the 41-year-old is shooting 32% from beyond the arc and he has knocked down multiple treys in 5-of-9 games. In this series vs. the Thunder, James has finished with three, one and two made three-pointers.
Oklahoma City’s defense is designed to protect the paint, not the perimeter, so this is a friendly spot for outside shooters. Of the remaining playoff teams, the Thunder are allowing the most made three-pointers per game (12.3).
James should see plenty of good looks from deep tonight and exceed 1.5 made three-pointers.
