Nuggets vs Jazz Same Game Parlay Picks for Dec. 30
1. Denver Nuggets ATS -7
Here’s the deal: if my title surprised you, maybe skip the New Year’s champagne because the Denver Nuggets laying seven points against the Jazz is a lock. Denver has already beaten Utah twice this season, both by double digit margins, and now Utah might be without their second-leading scorer, PF John Collins (per updated Nuggets vs Jazz injuries) (17.7 points per game). So yeah, I’m riding with the Nuggets all day on this one.
Look, I’m not saying the Nuggets are the championship team we saw two seasons ago – not by any stretch. But against the Jazz? They’re more than enough. Coming into this game sitting third in the league in scoring at 120 points per game, Denver’s offense is humming. It all starts with C Nikola Jokic doing, well, Jokic things – averaging a near triple-double with 30.8 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 9.5 assists per game. Supporting him is PG Jamal Murray at 19.8 points per game and sharpshooting SF Michael Porter Jr. adding 18.6. And don’t forget the bench, with guys like Russell Westbrook still keeping defenses on their toes.

When it all comes down to it, the Jazz are just outgunned here. They lead the league in turnovers at 17.7 per game, which spells disaster against a Nuggets team that can capitalize both offensively and defensively. Add in the fact that Denver is 4-2 ATS in divisional games this year, and all signs point to the Nuggets covering this one.
Bank on Denver to handle business once again.

2. Jazz C Walker Kessler 10+ Rebounds (-200)
The Utah Jazz have been outmatched this entire series against Denver, however, I’m going all-in on Jazz C Walker Kessler to grab more than 10 rebounds as my NBA player prop pick. Going toe-to-toe with Nikola Jokic is no small task, but Kessler has proven he’s up for the challenge. In their two matchups this season, he’s averaging 13 boards against the Nuggets, compared to his season average of 10.9 rebounds per game.

With PF John Collins (8.2 rebounds per game) likely sidelined, Kessler’s role on the glass becomes even more critical. The Jazz need him to dominate the boards, not just to keep Jokic in check but also to prevent second-chance opportunities from piling up. Jokic may very well win the overall rebounding battle, but Kessler grabbing 10 or more rebounds is as sure as the Nuggets lighting up the scoreboard.
Bank on the Jazz big man to clean up down low.
Bet This Pick: Walker Kessler 10+ Rebounds (-200)
