Zach Thompson details his best player prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for tonight’s game between the Lakers and the Bucks.

After plenty of NBA Cup drama on Friday, this Saturday has another nice slate of regular-season matchups.

The marquee headliner is the Lakers rolling into Milwaukee to face the Bucks, setting up Luka vs. Giannis in a great head-to-head battle. Both teams are playing for the second day in a row and got wins on Friday night. The Lakers won relatively comfortably over the Pelicans, but the Bucks needed overtime to dispatch the pesky Hornets. On the season, the Lakers are 9-4 while the Bucks are 8-5.

On DraftKings Sportsbook the Bucks are 1.5-point home favorites, with the game total set at 229.5 points. In addition to the main game line, DraftKings Sportsbook has a host of player prop bets for Saturday night’s matchup.

In this post, I’ll take a look at a few of my favorites.

Let’s dive in.

Bucks vs. Lakers Best Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Giannis Antetokounmpo 50+ Points + Rebounds + Assists (-119)

While the injury reports always have a chance to shake things up on the second night of a back-to-back, Giannis is probable with his Left Knee Patellar Tendinopathy and should be good to go even though he logged 40 minutes on Friday. He finished that game with 25 points, 18 assists and seven rebounds for 50 PRA (points, rebounds and assists). He has at least 50 PRA in seven of his 11 games this season and is averaging 51.4 PRA per game on the season.

Giannis always seems to rise to the occasion against the Lakers, averaging  33.4 points, 11.6 rebounds and 6.5 assists in his last 10 matchups against them (51.5 PRA).

Obviously, taking any player to get to 50+ PRA is a stretch, but at home in what should be an up-tempo matchup, Giannis should be poised to step up once again as the focus of the Bucks’ offense.

Jake LaRavia 10+ points (-125)

With Rui Hachimura (shoulder) ruled out for the second game of the back-to-back and Marcus Smart (illness) questionable, there should be more work available off the bench for LaRavia, who has shown a very high ceiling when given the chance to be more involved.

On the season, he’s averaging 10.7 points per game, but he has been held under 10 points in each of his last three games. With more work, though, he should have a good chance to push past this prop line. He had 13 points in his last start against the Hawks a week ago and had scored at least 10 points in six of eight games prior to that.

Ryan Rollins over 21 Points + Assists (-101)

Rollins has stepped up as a secondary option for the Bucks this season, averaging 17.5 points and 4.0 rebounds per game. He had 20 points and four assists in 34 minutes on Friday against Charlotte, comfortably going over this prop line for the fourth time in his last five games.

Rollins has at least 21 points and assists in eight of his last 10 games, and he has moved into the starting lineup as a key creator and scorer. The 23-year-old was originally a second-round pick of the Hawks in 2022 that was traded to the Warriors on draft night. He spent time with the Warriors and Wizards before landing with the Bucks early in 2024.

His emergence has been impressive and makes him one of the early candidates for Most Improved Player this year as he steps in and fills the point guard role for Giannis and Myles Turner down low.
