Suns 124. Nuggets 121
Looking over the splits for the Nuggets vs Suns gives me confidence that the home team can pull the rug out from under a better squad for an upset. The NBA odds may list the Suns at +4.5, but they are underestimating this team at the Footprint Center.

Nuggets vs Suns Best 3 NBA Player Props Today
1. Suns G Devin Booker Over 6.5 Assists (-120)
Booker knows how to get his teammates the ball, especially when playing at the Footprint Center. Looking at the Nuggets vs Suns stats, at home, Booker is averaging 7.2 assists per game, compared to 6.2 on the road, and he totaled 11 dimes on Friday in the Suns’ return home after a four-game road trip. He’s gone over 6.5 assists in five straight home games, dating back to Jan. 11.

2. Nuggets C Nikola Jokic Over 10.5 Assists (-112)
Jokic is the best player on the planet, and unlike some other GOAT candidates, he’s really good at sharing the glory. The Joker is averaging 10.3 assists per game and has 10+ in five straight starts. Bet confidently that he crosses the double-digit mark on Saturday and cashes this ticket for us.
3. Nuggets C Nikola Jokic Under 29.5 Points (-109)
I’m not usually in the habit of betting against the best basketball player in the world, but here goes nothing. Like Booker, Jokic’s recent numbers in this area dip on the road, and the Nuggets are far from Denver on Saturday. Jokic’s last five games on the road have seen him average a more mortal 25.2 points. Against a solid defense, I think this is a good fade to start Super Bowl weekend.

Nuggets vs Suns Moneyline Pick
Yeah, the Suns are on the second night of a back-to-back, but have some faith in the home team here. They are on a tear, winning six of their last seven games at home, and have the momentum from beating the Jazz in overtime on Friday. Take a chance with the +150 line.
Nuggets vs Suns Spread Pick
Picking the Suns to win outright makes the second of our NBA predictions easy. Why? Well the Suns can’t cash my first pick without also cashing this one. But, if you are feeling less confident in the Suns, go ahead and just take them to cover the +4.5 NBA spread on Saturday at home. It’s less value at -110, but a win is a win and you are still going to add money to your bankroll.
Bet On Suns +4.5 vs Nuggets (-110)
Nuggets vs Suns Over/Under Pick
At home, the Suns hit the under at an over/under record of 9-16. That’s good for an under ROI of 22.18% and a profit of 6.10 units. Meanwhile, on the road over their last five games, the Nuggets are 2-3 with a slight profit from betting the under. Take under 238 when you’re wagering at BetUS Sportsbook.
Bet On Nuggets vs Suns Under 238 (-110)
