Mavericks vs. Lakers: NBA First Basket Prop Bet Odds, Picks & Predictions: Sunday (Christmas Day)
The inconsistencies of the Lakers season have been an issue all season. They will be at a huge disadvantage with point and rebounds leader Anthony Davis and assist leaders Russell Westbrook out with injuries.
The Mavericks have Luka Doncic, who’s leading the team in points, assists, and rebounds, but the supporting cast has not been as efficient as this sits around .500.
Although the Lakers have a slight advantage in first-basket wins, many of those were from Anthony Davis, who is out. I like the Mavericks grabbing the first bucket.
