LeBron James Made 3 Point Shots Prop is currently Over/Under 2.5 (+140/-180).
Key Factors
Favors Over
LeBron James has made 3.0 treys per game over the last 5 games, 0.8 more than he's converted from beyond the arc in all games this year.
LeBron James has been on the court for 34.6 minutes per game this year, putting him among the most-utilized players in the league: 93rd percentile.
When it comes to shots from downtown, the Los Angeles Lakers's remarkable 40.5% rate of drained threes settles in as the 2nd-best in the league over the last 5 games.
The matchup against the Utah Jazz is a strong one for 3-pointers; the other team's starting PFs have tallied the most 3-point shots per game in the NBA this year (2.4).
The Jazz have played at the 7th-fastest tempo in the league over the last 5 games, which should raise opportunities for the Lakers.
Favors Under
LeBron James has averaged 2.2 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games, 0.8 higher than he's averaged in all games this season.
The Los Angeles Lakers have played at the 2nd-least up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 20 games as the away team.
The Lakers have been the worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 25 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
LeBron James will not receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing away from your home stadium generally decreases player performance across the board.
