As the Lakers gear up to face off against the Thunder, all eyes will be on LeBron James, but recent trends suggest he might not be lighting it up from beyond the arc. In his last five games, he's averaging just 0.8 threes, and at home, that number dips even further to 0.6. Historically, against Oklahoma City, he's managed just 1.2 threes at home, falling short of the 1.5 mark we're targeting. What's particularly striking is his perfect record over the last nine games, but those numbers tell a different story when we focus on recent performance. With a steady decline in his three-point shooting and the Thunder's defensive schemes aimed at limiting his perimeter looks, betting the under on LeBron's threes feels like the smart move. Expect him to do more playmaking and less shooting from deep in this matchup.
