LOS ANGELES – The Michael Jordan vs. LeBron James debate has engulfed the minds of basketball fans for the past couple of years as there are numerous ways to prove which player is the Greatest of All Time.

No matter which side of the debate basketball fans allegiance lies with BetOnline is giving bettors the opportunity to bet on who would win in a 1v1 game between Michael Jordan and LeBron James along with other props on the game.

  • LeBron James -550
  • Michael Jordan +300

Winner: Michael Jordan (+300). Although there is a major age difference between LeBron James and Michael Jordan – in which the latter hasn’t played an NBA game in almost a decade – take the odds on MJ to win here.

Player to commit the most fouls:

  • LeBron James -300

  • Michael Jodan -130
  • LeBron James -110

Jordan was a much better free throw shooter through his career which is why his -130 odds are the best bet for this legal prop bet.

Player to Score First Point:

  • Michael Jordan +110

Winner: Michael Jordan (+110). This will be one of the hardest props to predict especially since both players are prolific scorers but bettors should take the +110 odds on Michael Jordan.
