James Harden has been a steady presence for the Clippers, averaging 20.6 points, 8.5 assists, and 7.9 rebounds this season.
In Sunday’s win over the Jazz, Harden finished with 20 points, six rebounds, and 11 assists while adding to his historic resume by surpassing Ray Allen for second place on the all-time three-pointers made list. Now, he faces Steph Curry and the Warriors in a marquee matchup.
Here are some of the best Harden prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Monday’s game:
Best James Harden Prop Bets
21.5 Points (Over -115 / Under -115): Harden is coming off a 20-point outing against Utah and has averaged 20.6 points this season. He posted 23 points against the Warriors earlier this year. The over appeals to those expecting Harden to continue his offensive rhythm against a fast-paced Warriors team. However, the under makes sense if Golden State keys in on Harden effectively without Kawhi Leonard in the lineup.
6.5 Rebounds (Over +110 / Under -142): Harden’s rebounding line sits at 6.5, which he has surpassed in seven of his 14 games this season. Harden may have opportunities to collect defensive rebounds against just about any opponent. The over offers value at +110 for bettors confident that this trend will continue.
6.5 Assists (Over -105 / Under -125): As the Clippers’ primary playmaker, Harden has averaged 8.5 assists this season. He tallied 11 assists in his first matchup with the Warriors this year. He tends to make the right play, so if he draws blitzes, he’ll be dishing out passes and creating chances to hit the over for assists.
36.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (Over -110 / Under -120): A combined line of 36.5 highlights Harden’s versatility. He’s averaging 37.0 across these categories this season, making the over a reasonable option in a game expected to feature significant offensive output. The under is a solid option for those seeking to capitalize on an off night.
Triple-Double (+1000): Harden has recorded one triple-double this season and came close in several other outings. At +1000, this prop offers high-reward potential for those banking on Harden’s ability to impact all facets of the game.
Most Points (+270): While Harden can lead the game in scoring, Stephen Curry remains the primary threat. Still, +270 provides value for bettors expecting a big night from Harden. Also, Curry is questionable to play due to left knee bursitis.
Most Points + Rebounds + Assists (+120): Harden’s well-rounded production gives him a strong case for leading in this combined category. With +120 odds, this is a worthwhile consideration for bettors banking on his high usage rate.
Most Threes (+650): Harden’s 2.5 made threes per game and recent historic milestone make this an intriguing play. However, bettors must consider Curry’s dominance as the NBA’s all-time leader in made threes. Keep an eye on Curry’s injury status for potential line shifts.
Most Rebounds (+1200): While rebounding isn’t Harden’s primary strength, his ability to crash the boards has resulted in an average of 7.9 rebounds per game. This is a long-shot option with significant upside.
Most Assists (-170): Harden’s passing skills make him a heavy favorite to lead the game in assists. This bet is safer for those looking for consistency over a high payout. The odds do not come with remarkable value due to this outlook, but it is at least something to monitor for a ticket.
