LeBron James OVER 29.5 POINTS -116
I’m really concerned that you come here and read the same names over and over again every time. But to be fair the goal is to win money and I can proudly say that we’re on the right path. So LeBron James, 37 years old, in his 19th year in the NBA, is leading the league in scoring with 29.7ppg. He has covered in 19 of L30 games and is averaging 32.3 in L10 and a whopping 36.2 in L5 with 56 and 50 points in 2 of his L3. He had 34 in the last matchup with the Suns. Even though a blowout is very possible, I can see him scoring 30+ even in fewer minutes.
Jayson Tatum OVER 28.5 POINTS -116
With Tatum being so hot, this is another auto-bet. My only concern is the spread is -7 and I can’t understand why. I know Boston is the team in the best form in NBA at the moment, but if Doncic plays (not on the injury report) Dallas will remain competitive and they can even steal this game. Tatum had 32 in the only meeting they had and in his L10 he has 32.9ppg. And in L5 the average goes to the incredible 39.8ppg, having 30+ in each.
Seth Curry OVER 13.5 POINTS -125
Seth Curry was in some shooting slump like his brother, but I really liked what I saw against Philly. In the New York battle, Kyrie can be courtside and watch, but can’t play. KD will need a little bit of help, and I can’t see a better player to do it than Seth. He had 20 in his first match with the Nets vs. the Knicks and has gone over the line in 54% of the games he played this year. With one day’s rest, Curry is averaging a very efficient 16.3ppg. Knicks are bad defending the perimeter, so I also like 3+ 3PTM.
