Sleeper Picks: Pistons vs. Lakers

LeBron James: 0.5 points
LeBron James scoring at least one basket or free throw against the Pistons is almost a guaranteed outcome. In the Lakers’ recent victory over the New Orleans Pelicans, James scored 21 points.

Austin Reaves: 1.5 3-pointers made
With Spencer Dinwiddie making his Lakers debut, Austin Reaves may have more catch-and-shoot opportunities behind the arc. Reaves has managed to make multiple 3-pointers in five of his last six games.

Jaden Ivey: 29.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists
Second-year guard Jaden Ivey has been a standout performer for the struggling Pistons. He has been averaging 15.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.7 assists this season. In a recent game against the Los Angeles Clippers, Ivey scored 23 points, falling short on rebounds and assists. However, prior to that game, he exceeded 29.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists in back-to-back games.
