The Bucks are hosting the 76ers on Sunday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Milwaukee is favored by 12.5 points and this game carries a total of 223 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Damian Lillard prop to consider from this contest.

Best Damian Lillard Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Damian Lillard O 23.5 Points (-110)

Lillard has scored at least 24 points in six of his last seven starts and Sunday’s matchup vs. the 76ers is very appealing. Joel Embiid (foot) will miss his eighth game in a row and with the former MVP sidelined for the last seven, Philadelphia has ranked 27th in defensive rating. Lillard faced the 76ers in the season opener and with Embiid inactive for that tilt, the guard poured in 30 points while shooting 6-of-12 from beyond the arc.

Khris Middleton continues to come off the bench for the Bucks and in the nine games Lillard has played with Middleton coming off the bench this season, Lillard is averaging 25.8 PPG with a 27.5% usage rate. Additionally, Milwaukee is a 12.5-point home favorite for Sunday’s matchup vs. the 76ers and in the 12 home wins for the Bucks that Lillard has been active for this season, he is averaging 25.9 PPG and he has cleared 23.5 points in 10 of those 12 games.

Lillard is a great bet for over 23.5 points Sunday and parlaying this over with the Bucks to win on the ML has a ton of merit, with this two-pick SGP resulting in a favorable price of +102 on DraftKings Sportsbook. The 76ers lost their fifth game in a row last night and are 0-5 on the second leg of a back-to-back this season, while the Bucks enter this game with a 7-3 record in their last 10 games.
