The Lakers are visiting the Bucks on Thursday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Milwaukee is favored by seven points and this game carries a total of 224 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 18.5 Assists + Rebounds (-110)

Doncic (ankle) is questionable tonight, but he just played through a questionable tag Monday and with LeBron James (groin) remaining sidelined, Doncic should suit up. Monday vs. the Nets was the first time Doncic played a game as a Laker without James. In 41.2 minutes of work, Doncic posted a triple-double of 22 points, 12 assists and 12 rebounds.

With James off the floor, Doncic’s assist rate skyrockets 14.3 percentage points to a mammoth 53.5% and his rebound percentage increases 4.5 percentage points to 17.6%. On a per 36-minute basis, Doncic is averaging 11.6 rebounds and 10.9 assists with James off the court.

While the Bucks rank 11th in defensive efficiency this season, 18.5 AR is far too low of a number for Doncic with James absent.
