3 Best NBA Prop Bets Today for Jazz vs. Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers and Utah Jazz are on a collision course tonight in Western Conference action in LA. Both teams are full of talent but have been struggling as of late. We have already covered the betting preview for this game, but I wanted to add onto that with a few player props for this Monday night melee. All props used were provided by WynnBET Sportsbook.

3 Best Prop Bets for Jazz vs. Lakers

• Russel Westbrook OVER 8.5 Rebounds (+100)
• Rudy Gobert OVER 15.5 Points (-110)
• Donovan Mitchell OVER 5.5 Assists (-105)

Russel Westbrook OVER 8.5 Rebounds (+100)

The Lakers are struggling right now and things are not going to get any easier tonight with Anthony Davis out of the lineup. While this is bad news for the Lakers, it does mean that there will be some extra rebounds to go around. Westbrook is one of the best rebounding guards in the game and he leads the Lakers with 8.1 rebounds per game. He has twice nabbed more than 10 boards in his last four games and in six of his last 12. This number is right around his season average and I think he goes above and beyond that tonight. 

Rudy Gobert OVER 15.5 Points (-110)

As I stated in my preview for this game, I think the Jazz will rely on Gobert tonight to put this team on his back. Gobert went off in his return to action last night with 18 points and 19 rebounds against the Denver Nuggets. With Anthony Davis out and Dwight Howard dealing with a knee injury, Gobert will have an easier time scoring in the paint 

Donovan Mitchell OVER 5.5 Assists (-105)

While Mitchell is the Jazz’s scoring leader, he is also a very capable passer. Mitchell is averaging 5.1 assists per game and has gone over this total in three of his last seven games. What makes tonight’s game attractive for this pick is that the Lakers give up the 28th most assists in the NBA and are 25th in opponent assists to field goal ratio. I think he takes advantage of this and feeds Gobert and Co. all game.
