LeBron James' main prop is set at 25.5, when the whole world is on a prop it tends to lose just barely a lot. I’m not saying he will certainly score exactly 25 but if it happens just know I will be very happy we laid a little juice and went with this instead of needing 26.

Los Angeles Lakers vs. Houston Rockets Prediction

LeBron has all the motivation in the world for this one. First off, the Lakers have lost two straight. LeBron will play big minutes to make sure he does his part of trying to end that skid. Anthony Davis should play but may be hobbled and banged up.

Dillon Brooks was talking crazy again and saying he will lock up Lebron. If he didn’t open his mouth the first time then he may still be a Grizzlies player. This feels like a LeBron shows the world that despite his age he is still among the best players still playing in this league.

In his last three games LeBron has averaged 29.7 points per game. Houston has a shockingly improved defense this year but this is the King against a young team and a yapper in Dillon Brooks. I expect plenty of hard drives to the basket and free throws as well. We can win this one in a multitude of ways. Let's roll!
