Best NBA Player Props Tonight: LeBron James & More, December 18 | 2022-23 NBA Season

14 NBA teams are in action, and many player props are being offered on Caesars Sportsbook. Below, we'll take you through the best players to target this Sunday, December 18.

NBA Player Prop #1: LaMelo Ball Over 28.5 Points and Assists (-125)

Charlotte Hornets vs. Denver Nuggets Match Details

Fixture: Charlotte Hornets @ Denver Nuggets

Date & Time: Sunday, December 18, 8:00 p.m. EDT

Venue: Ball Arena, Denver, Colorado

LaMelo Ball has only played in five games so far this year due to injuries, but in his two recent games since coming back, he hasn't missed a beat. He had 23 points and 11 assists versus Detroit, followed up by a 27-point, three-assist performance against Atlanta on Friday. As the Hornets' best player and playmaker, expect Ball to get to 29 combined points and assists with ease tonight.

NBA Player Prop #2: Russell Westbrook Over 29.5 Points, Rebounds, and Assists (-128)

Washington Wizards vs. Los Angeles Lakers Match Details

Fixture: Washington Wizards @ Los Angeles Lakers

Date & Time: Sunday, December 18, 9:30 p.m. EDT

Venue: Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, California

Russell Westbrook is one of the frontrunners for sixth man of the year this season, and lately, he's had some big games. The former MVP has embraced his role off the bench, and now with Anthony Davis out for a bit, Westbrook is expected to be even more productive. Last game, Westbrook recorded his second triple-double of the season, and he should be active all around again tonight against his former team.

NBA Player Prop #3: LeBron James Over 31.5 Points (-114)

Washington Wizards vs. Los Angeles Lakers Match Details

Fixture: Washington Wizards @ Los Angeles Lakers

Date & Time: Sunday, December 18, 9:30 p.m. EDT

Venue: Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, California

LeBron James is still one of the better players in the NBA at age 37 in his 20th season. James averages 26.7 points per game, but with Anthony Davis set to miss about a month, look for LeBron to see an increased usage rate. Since the beginning of last year, James averages 32.9 points in games where Davis has sat out and looking at the rest of the Lakers' roster, 'The King' will have to step up for the foreseeable future. Lonnie Walker IV and Russell Westbrook average around 15 points per contest, but Davis' 27.4 points will need to be made up. The Wizards don't have anyone that can guard James, so expect him to reach at least 32 points tonight in LA.
