Xaiver Aguiar details his top LaMelo Ball player prop bets for the Hornets vs. Bucks game on Saturday night.
The Hornets look to get back on track against a struggling Bucks squad. Despite the club’s recent skid, LaMelo Ball has re-established himself as one of the brightest young stars in the NBA.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, Charlotte is currently a four-point underdog, with the game’s point total set at 217.5. Below, I’ve honed in on my favorite player prop centered around Ball in this Eastern Conference matchup.
Best LaMelo Ball Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
LaMelo Ball 30+ Points (+120)
LaMelo Ball is on a heater. The 23-year-old has scored at least 30 points on at least 25 field goal attempts in three straight contests. He’s a fearless creator who isn’t afraid to hunt his own shot. Like most young top options, his obsession with launching from beyond the arc helps his bottom line, averaging 13 attempts from beyond the arc a night.
Milwaukee has a substandard perimeter defense and has no one to throw at Ball to attempt to slow him down. The all-star guard will have no problem getting to his jumper and scoring in bunches, and this fourth-year leap seems sustainable. Ball continues his scorching stretch and clears this line with ease.
