Suns vs. Lakers NBA Betting Picks + Odds Shopping
Finding the most profitable NBA betting picks has never been easier. The newly updated OddsShopper is like the Amazon of sports betting. Simply filter, sort the page and find the NBA best bets within seconds.
Wayne Ellington Under 1.5 Assists (-169, Caesars)
When sorting the prop bets by expected win percentage, this is the prop that comes to the very top. OddsShopper gives this prop a 76% chance to go under and a 21% ROI, projecting Wayne Ellington for one assist. Ellington is not exactly on the floor to make plays for his teammates, shown by his average of 0.8 assists per game this season. He is there to space the floor, putting up a 3 if the ball goes his way. While his assists have gone up lately, with the Lakers short on warm bodies, Ellington should again resort to being a floor spacer against the Suns, who allow the sixth-fewest assists per game (22.6).

Chris Paul Under 10.5 Assists (-147, SugarHouse)
Chris Paul has been solid for the Suns this season, especially in the assist category. He is averaging 10.1 assists per game this season. However, with Devin Booker back in the lineup, he will take some of the usage away from Paul, as he can also operate as a ball handler. Paul has also totaled under double-digit assists in three of his past four games. With a very strong possibility that this game could get out of hand, betting the under on Paul is wise. OddsShopper gives this prop a 71% chance to go under and a 19% ROI, projecting him for 9.1 assists.
Russell Westbrook Under 7.5 Assists (-144, FanDuel)
OddsShopper gives this prop a 67% chance to go under and a 14% ROI, projecting Russell Westbrook for 6.6 assists. LeBron James is probable to play tonight, which means the assist total for Westbrook will likely not go too high. Westbrook only averages 7.49 assists per 36 minutes when sharing the floor with LeBron. With the difficult matchup against Phoenix, everything points to the under.
