💰 Best Heat vs. Lakers player prop picks

⬆️ Luka Doncic Over 41.5 points + assists (-116) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Doncic has been on an absolute heater to start the season - when he's been available.

He's missed half of the Lakers' games thus far, but is averaging 53 points and assists in his appearances. And he's gone Over this number on just his points alone in every game.

This is a high bar, but who else other than Doncic would you trust to clear it?

Among our best sports betting sites, the top price is -116 at DraftKings, which translates to an implied probability of 53.70%. A successful $10 bet will win $8.62 in profit.

🔥 Bam Adebayo to record a double-double (+110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Adebayo has three double-doubles across five games this season (60% hit rate). But his Heat are the better rebounding team in this matchup, and it's shaping up to be a busy night on the glass for the three-time NBA All-Star.

With Tyler Herro out and Norman Powell a game-time decision for the Heat, I expect Adebayo to have plenty of chances to top 10 rebounds.

We're getting slightly better odds here at FanDuel (+110) than Caesars was offering on Adebayo's Over 9.5 rebounds total (+100). Head to FanDuel to place a $10 wager for the chance to bring home an $11 profit with an implied probability of 47.62%.

Our Shane Jackson has two other featured plays on Doncic and Adebayo in his best NBA player prop bets today.

⬆️ Austin Reaves Over 23.5 points (-105) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Reaves isn't going to be putting up the numbers we saw from him in October anytime soon - 51 and 41-point games in Doncic's absence - but now isn't the time to fade the talented guard.

While his 32 points-per-game average (fifth-most) is inflated by those two standout shooting performances, his offensive game has clearly grown in the early portion of the campaign. He won't have the same on-ball usage with Doncic on the floor, but his presence will open up even more space for Reaves as a shooter. It's also worth noting that he's averaging an NBA-best 10.2 made free throws per game.

DraftKings is offering reasonable -105 odds on Over 23.5 points from Reaves, where a $10 bet could win $9.52 in profit. That translates to an implied probability of 51.22%.
