Bronny James (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 1.5 Threes Made (-270)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Lakers gear up to face the Mavericks in Dallas, all eyes will be on Bronny James, but bettors might want to consider a different angle by targeting the under on his three-pointers made at 1.5. While Bronny has shown flashes of brilliance, he's averaging just 0.6 threes over his last five games, and even more telling, he hasn't connected from beyond the arc against the Mavericks in their last two encounters. The pressure of playing away in front of a hostile crowd could further hinder his rhythm. Historically, Bronny shines in most matchups but has only hit the over on this prop in one of his last nine games, with a solid away hit rate of 15 out of 18 games suggesting he thrives elsewhere. Given these factors, betting the under looks like a savvy move as the Lakers try to navigate a tough road challenge.

LeBron James (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 35.5 Points + Assists (-112)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Lakers gear up to face the Mavericks, all eyes are on LeBron James, but the savvy bet is to take him for under 35.5 points and assists. While LeBron's reputation is legendary, recent performances highlight a different trend. Over his last five games, he's averaging just 17 points and 7.4 assists, resulting in a combined average of 24.4-well below our target. On the road, those numbers dip even further to 15.8 points and 7 assists. Historically, against the Mavericks, he's managed 20.6 points and 7 assists, but with his current form, those numbers feel inflated. Considering he's hit the under in all 20 of his last away games, it's clear the King may be reining it in against a tough Dallas defense. With the Mavericks' ability to contain star players, betting the under on LeBron feels like a wise move this Sunday.

Luke Kennard (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 21.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-118)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Lakers gear up to face the Mavericks, all eyes will be on Luke Kennard, but betting the under on his combined points, rebounds, and assists at 21.5 feels like the smart play. Kennard has consistently struggled on the road, averaging just 6.8 points and 2.8 rebounds in his last five away games. In fact, against the Mavericks, he's only managed 4.6 points per game on the road, which is a stark contrast to his overall performance. With averages of just 1.4 assists away from home, it's clear that the Dallas defense will present a stiff challenge. His recent form shows a steep decline, hitting the under in all of his last eight away games. Given this trend and the Mavericks' formidable defense, it's reasonable to expect Kennard to fall short of that 21.5 mark once again.
