View all Covers PicksDraymond Green o11.5 rebounds + assists (-120)
Draymond Green tends to save his top gear for marquee moments like Christmas Day, and I expect a matchup against LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and the rest of the Lakers to jolt him into all-action Draymond. That means chipping in throughout the box score, but I especially like the Over on his rebounds + assists combo prop. While his points total can fluctuate in a big way, Green’s game has never been about scoring.
LeBron James Over 22.5 points (-125)
James has hit the Over on this line in three of his last five Christmas games and 12 of 18 overall. I expect him to understand the gravity of the moment and come out firing. There’s no guarantee we’ll see LeBron vs. Curry in a big game like this again, and James will do what he can to make this an entertaining contest. James is averaging a career-low 23.2 points per game this season, and he’s hit the Over on this line in 12 of 27 games. He’s been a slightly better scorer on the road than at home, and seven of his 12 games with at least 23 points have come outside of crypto.Com Arena. James has scored at least 28 points in two straight, and I’m counting on James to extend that streak tonight.
