Tyrese Haliburton Under 8.5 Assists (+110, SugarHouse)

When sorting the prop bets by expected win percentage, this is the prop that comes to the very top. OddsShopper gives this prop an 81% chance to go under and a 71% ROI, projecting Tyrese Haliburton for 6.5 assists. The Lakers have been tightening their defense lately. While they allow 25.1 assists per game for the full season, they have allowed only 19.3 per game over their past three games. Haliburton’s assist prop is high due to his recent play, but OddsShopper is projecting he will struggle tonight.

Malik Monk Over 1.5 Assists (-189, Caesars)

Malik Monk has started the past four games, playing over 30 minutes in each. While this has hurt his assist numbers, the matchup tonight outweighs that. Both teams feature a high pace, so we should expect a lot of points to be scored. The Kings also are a bottom-10 team in defensive efficiency. Look for Monk to play well and set a few of his teammates up for easy scores. OddsShopper gives this prop a 75% chance to go over and a 15% ROI, projecting him for 2.7 assists.

De’Aaron Fox Under 21.5 Points (-118, FanDuel)

It has been a tough season for De’Aaron Fox. Recently he has really struggled to score the ball. He has been held under 20 points in four of his past five games. The Lakers defense has been better the past few games as well, which only continues to point to the under for Fox. The last time he faced the Lakers, back in November, Fox totaled only 17 points. OddsShopper gives this prop a 75% chance to go under and a 39% ROI, projecting him for 17.9 points.
