Best Stephen Curry prop bets for Lakers vs. Warriors

The Warriors aim to climb back up in the standings against a middling Lakers side on Christmas. Stephen Curry has shown signs of slowing down, but it’s only a matter of time before the best shooter in the world gets back on track.

On DraftKings Sportsbook, Golden State is currently a 4-point favorite, with the game’s point total set at 223.5 points. Below, I’ve honed in on my favorite player prop centered around Curry in this Western Conference showdown.

Best Stephen Curry Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Stephen Curry 30+ Points (+205)

After years of looking like a superhero, Stephen Curry has started to look a little more human lately. In two of his last three games, the two-time MVP has shot under 16% from the field, including a 0/7, two-point disasterclass last Thursday against Memphis. At 36, it’s easy to blame Father Time, but why can’t this just be an early-season rut? We’re not even six months removed from his stellar Olympics run, and he’s still shooting over 40% from distance.

A primetime matchup against his career frenemy, LeBron James, is a gift of a bounce-back spot. The Los Angeles perimeter defense is a disaster, to the point where opponents look like they are taking shooting practice from beyond the arc. Curry will be on a mission to get back in rhythm and, given the occasion, will almost certainly be ready to put on a show. Take the juicy value and redemption arc and back Golden State’s superstar.

The Massachusetts native was commenting on his sports video games by the time he could tie his shoes and fantasized about turning his favorite hobby into his future career. He might not have grown tall enough to be an elite stretch-five who could rock the rim, but this content-creating thing is a decent second option.
