We are officially to the point in the NBA season when there are a handful of teams who are more concerned about their draft lottery odds than about playing competitive basketball.

NBA Player Props Today – Wednesday, March 26, 2025
- Kawhi Leonard Over/Under 22.5 Points
- Ryan Rollins Over/Under 9.5 Points
- LeBron James Over/Under 24.5 Points
Kawhi Leonard OVER 22.5 Points (-115, FanDuel)
Entering play on Wednesday, Leonard is averaging 24.9 points per game during March and has taken 18+ shot attempts in 8 of his last 10 games. Tonight, he will be playing on 2 days’ rest, which is a spot in which he has thrived in a limited sample size this season. On March 7, he was inefficient from the floor, but he still scored 20 points and had 18 shot attempts against the Knicks. Leonard scored 25 points on March 14 against the Hawks, and he added 23 points against the Grizzlies this past Friday.
Most importantly, Leonard has played 36+ minutes in all 3 of those games. Assuming a competitive game script on Wednesday, Leonard should see good volume, giving him every opportunity to get the job done.
Ryan Rollins OVER 9.5 Points (-120, DraftKings)
Rollins appears to be in for an expanded role with the Bucks following the unfortunate news that Damian Lillard is dealing with a blood clot in his leg. Ahead of tip-off on Wednesday, Rollins has played 21+ minutes in each of the team’s last 3 games.
This season, Rollins has played 20+ minutes in 9 of 11 games in which Lillard has been inactive. In the 9 games he’s played 20+ minutes, Rollins has 5 games with 10+ shot attempts and only 2 games with fewer than 6 shot attempts. He should have his opportunities this evening on the offensive end of the floor.
LeBron James UNDER 24.5 Points (-110, BetMGM)
James has seemingly been willing to take a more subdued role in the Lakers’ offense since returning from injury this past Saturday. He took only 16 shot attempts on Saturday against the Bulls and only 18 shot attempts on Monday against the Magic. In both of those games, Luka Doncic was the clear alpha in the offense, with Austin Reaves seeing similar volume to James as the team’s No. 2 and No.3 scoring options, respectively.
James is averaging 24.9 points per game this season, but we could see that number start to come down in the coming weeks, especially if the Lakers try to limit his minutes in certain situations to keep him fresh for the playoffs. There could be some value on the under on James’ points prop going forward.
