It’s become such a big topic that even sportsbooks have released prop odds of who may make the next guest appearance at one of the Taco Tuesday tour stops.

Here’s a look at the frontrunners and a longshot to really consider.

Among those who have already appeared at Taco Tuesday events is new teammate Anthony Davis, who was on Jimmy Kimmel Live earlier this week to talk about the experience.

“It’s a real tradition,” Davis said. “We have hard shell tacos, soft shell, all types of vegetables.”

Dwyane Wade

LeBron’s good friend and former Miami Heat teammate Dwyane Wade comes in as the favorite to make an appearance at Taco Tuesday. Wade is listed at +155, which is a good value considering the two have vacationed together in the past.

Who can ever forget that photo of Wade and LeBron sharing a Banana Boat ride with fellow NBA star Chris Paul and Wade’s wife Gabrielle Union?

Danny Green

Danny Green, fresh off a championship with the Toronto Raptors is next on the board at +205. This line provides better value as Green is now on the Lakers and will have many more Tuesday meals with LeBron than Wade would.

Green also has a history of playing with LeBron as the two were on the Cleveland Cavaliers for one season in 2009-10.

Kyle Kuzma

The Lakers power forward is looking to have another big season offensively and what better way to achieve his goals than to fuel up on tacos?

Kuzma is listed at +400 behind Wade and Green on the board. The 2017 first-round pick is arguably the third-most valuable piece the Lakers have and just might make a strong taco-eating trio with LeBron and AD.

Magic Johnson

LeBron has drawn comparisons to NBA great Magic Johnson throughout his career. The two share many similarities from their scoring talent and vision on the court. Maybe they also share a passion for tacos? If you’re looking for a complete longshot here, put your money on Magic, who is listed as a +3000 underdog.

Only Kawhi Leonard has longer odds and we all know LeBron won’t be sharing tacos with a conference rival, especially after Kawhi snubbed the Lakers by going to the Clippers.

Pick: Danny Green (+205)
