LeBron James Under 35.5 Points + Rebounds
LeBron James had a great first game against the Golden State Warriors, scoring 22 points and pulling down 11 rebounds. He has scored 22 points in three of his last four games. However, since his 20-rebound performance against the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 4 of that series, James has not compiled enough rebounds to come near the number being presented today.
Additionally, the Lakers hold a 1-0 series lead. We saw the Miami Heat rest Jimmy Butler in a similar situation. Granted, Butler was hurt, and there is no possible way James will miss this game. Yet, he also likely won’t hit the 40-minute mark like he did in Game 1. In fewer minutes, LeBron should struggle to hit this number. But even if he comes close to 40, this number is just too high.

At BettingPros, we’ve compiled several projection sources to come up with consensus projections. We then compared these projections to the prop bet odds from the sportsbooks to give you the best prop bet picks.
What are Player Props?
Player props refer to wagers that bettors can make based on player performance in a specific game. The majority of player props are built around the most common statistical benchmarks for a specific sport such as yards and touchdowns in football. Most player props are straight over/under plays that open at or near -110 and are adjusted based on where the money lands. Examples of basketball player prop bets include over/under bets on points, assists, rebounds, three-pointers made, blocks, or steals.
