- Luka Doncic rebounds and assists prop: Over 14.5 (-125 via DraftKings) ⭐⭐⭐
- Luka Doncic 3-point prop: Under 3.5 (-160 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐
- Luka Doncic turnover prop: Over 3.5 (+125 via bet365) ⭐⭐⭐
🏀 Luka Doncic Over 14.5 rebounds and assists ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -125 via DraftKings ($10 to win $8)
If LeBron James is out against Charlotte—he's currently a game-time decision—it will change the whole dynamic of this matchup for Doncic. Our Hornets vs. Lakers prediction examined how James's absence would directly impact Doncic's scoring. While I agree, I also think it will provide more opportunities for him to facilitate and rebound.
The five-time All-Star is averaging 15.5 combined rebounds and assists this season and has averaged Over 14.5 combined in every season since his rookie campaign. While he failed to hit the Over on this number in his first two games with the Lakers, that was while playing reduced minutes.
As Los Angeles makes a push to climb the NBA championship odds, Doncic should resume playing 34-plus MPG again tonight, especially coming out of the All-Star break. With more minutes, he's poised to hit the Over against a Hornets team that's allowing point guards to average 15.03 rebounds and assists per game.
🏀 Luka Doncic Under 3.5 made 3-pointers ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -160 via FanDuel ($10 to win $6.25)
Our best sports betting sites offer a short price on the Under, but it's worth taking, considering Doncic's shooting woes and the Hornets' perimeter defense. The 25-year-old is 4-for-15 (26.6%) from three in two games with L.A. and is averaging 3.3 made threes this season, down from 4.1 last year.
He's hit Over 3.5 threes 10 times this season, but just once in his previous five games. Meanwhile, the Hornets have been surprisingly solid defensively. They're 13th in defensive rating (114.2) and 10th in points allowed per game (111.8).
Charles Lee's team has been especially stingy defending behind the arc. Charlotte allows the eighth-fewest 3-pointers per game (13.2) and the second-lowest 3-point percentage (34%), which will make it tough for Doncic to break out of his shooting slump from deep.
🏀 Luka Doncic Over 3.5 turnovers ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: +125 via bet365 ($10 to win $12.50)
Terms and conditions apply.
Doncic committed five turnovers in just 23 minutes against a Utah Jazz squad that forces the fewest turnovers per game in the NBA (11.9) the last time he was on the court. Maybe it was jitters due to playing with a new team, but at this plus-money price via bet365 it's worth banking on Doncic turning it over at a high clip again.
The Hornets are forcing 14.1 turnovers per game, with point guards accounting for 3.36 of them. And Doncic has turned the ball over at least four times in four of his last eight games while averaging 3.9 turnovers per game.
If James isn't suiting up and Doncic sees his minutes increased back to a normal rate now that he's assimilated with his new team, he should see enough usage to turn the ball over at least four times.
