The Lakers are hosting the Timberwolves on Thursday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Los Angeles is favored by 6.5 points and this game presents a total of 229 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Luka Doncic prop bet to consider from this contest.

Best Luka Doncic Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Luka Doncic over 43.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-115)

Doncic no longer has a minutes limit, and he has flourished with the purple and gold. In his last two starts, Doncic has finished with 32 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists vs. the Nuggets and then he posted a triple-double of 19 points, 15 rebounds and 12 assists vs. the Mavericks.

LeBron James has let Doncic operate as the Lakers’ centerpiece with the guard leading Los Angeles with a 33.5% usage rate since he joined the club. Additionally, Doncic is handling 37.6% assist rate with the Lakers.

For Thursday night, Doncic is going against the Timberwolves defense that ranks sixth in rating this season. However, four-time Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert (back) will miss his fifth game in a row. With the center sidelined for the last four, Minnesota has ranked 21st in defensive rating. Doncic should have no issues filling up the stat sheet on his home floor and is a great bet to surpass 43.5 PRA. If looking to boost your odds, parlaying Doncic for this over with the Lakers on the ML makes sense. This two-pick SGP comes out to a +137 price on DraftKings Sportsbook and since the All-Star break, the Lakers rank eighth in net rating with a 3-1 record, while the Timberwolves rank 18th in net rating and are 1-2.
