1. Anthony Davis Over 13.5 rebounds @ (-103) via BetOnline
Anthony Davis is currently in his twelfth professional season, his fifth with the Los Angeles Lakers. The 30-year-old averages (25.2) points and (12.5) rebounds per game. Davis has only missed two games this season. Additionally, his (2.6) blocks per game are the highest of his career with the Lakers and since 2017-18.

He had 17 rebounds in a game last week in a loss to the Miami Heat. It’s been another impressive season for Davis, but the Lakers would like to have a better record. They are a much better team than their 18-19 record heading into Tuesday’s game against Toronto.
2. RJ Barrett Over 17.5 points @ (-126) via BetOnline
Less than two weeks ago, the Raptors and Knicks made a trade. Toronto sent OG Anunoby to the Knicks in exchange for RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley. In the four games they have played for the Raptors, the team is 3-1. Barrett’s scoring numbers have increased since he joined the Raptors. He was averaging (18.2) points per game with the Knicks.

His O/U for points is set at (17.5) against the Lakers. Barrett has surpassed that number in 14 of his 30 games played this season.

3. LeBron James Over 7.5 assists @ (-130) via BetOnline
At 39 years old, LeBron James shows no real signs of time slowing down. His energy level may be at its best, but the four-time NBA champion still dominates every time he steps on the court.

Tonight, his O/U in assists is set at (7.5) against the Raptors. James has surpassed that number in 14 of his 34 games played this season.
