LeBron James knows a little something about the playoffs. LeBron is a four-time NBA champion with the Cavaliers, Heat and Lakers and a four-time NBA Finals MVP. So, naturally, he has some thoughts on both the College Football Playoff and the Wild Card round of the NFL Playoffs this weekend.
On the college gridiron, LeBron has to go with his beloved THE Ohio State University, which is -225 on the moneyline, against Texas in tonight’s Cotton Bowl for the right to go on to the National Championship game on January 20 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
Meanwhile, in the NFL playoffs, LeBron also has some picks for the Wild Card round. On the Saturday slate, LeBron likes the Chargers (-162 on the moneyline) against the Texans and the Ravens (-485 on the moneyline) over the Steelers. In Sunday’s action, LeBron likes the Bills (-440 on the moneyline) over the Broncos, the Eagles (-225 on the moneyline) over the Packers and the Commanders ( +145 on the moneyline) over the Buccaneers. And to close out the Wild Card action, LeBron likes the Vikings (-148 on the moneyline) over the Rams.
LeBron also has some picks for the King of the End Zone. Here’s who he likes to score a touchdown:
- Derrick Henry
- Justin Jefferson
- Saquon Barkley
Make sure to catch LeBron as he catches up with Mike Golic Jr. and Mike Golic Sr. on Monday’s edition of GoJo and Golic, airing from 8 to 10 a.m. ET on DraftKings Network.
