Nuggets vs Thunder NBA Semifinals Parlay Picks for Wednesday, May 7: Bet on SGA to Dominate Denver in Game 2

NBA odds expect the Thunder to even the series at 1-1 after dropping Game 1 in dramatic circumstances. Oklahoma City led by 11 with less than five minutes remaining, but Aaron Gordon’s 3-pointer with 2.8 seconds left gave Denver a 121-119 victory.

The Nuggets are +11 underdogs in a key Game 2 on Wednesday night.

• Leg 1: Thunder -11 (-110)

I often see an upset in Game 1 before the home and more-favored team fights back in Game 2 and takes it easily. That’s what is expected from the Thunder, who choked away a late lead on Monday, and I don’t think lightning will strike twice. Denver could play tired after expending energy to fight back, so take the NBA parlay odds with the Thunder -11.

Bet on Thunder -11 (-110)

• Leg 2: Nuggets vs Thunder Under 230 (-110)

Under 229.5 points is included in my NBA props for Game 2. The Thunder should come out swinging with a big scoring performance, and there were 240 points scored in Game 1, so it should be a similar scoreline. I thought the NBA line would have been around 235.5, so I’m happy to include over 230 in my Nuggets vs Thunder parlay picks.

Bet on Nuggets vs Thunder Over 230 (-110)

• Leg 3: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 33.5 Points (-112)

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 33 points in Game 1, and he did it without making much of a fuss. The Thunder guard averages 32.7 points per game, and also had 38 points when closing out the Grizzlies in the first series. He’s an amazing talent, and my NBA picks are confident he’ll top score in this game. I wouldn’t be surprised if he posted a 40-point effort in a big Thunder win.

Bet on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 33.5 points (-112)

• Leg 4: Alex Caruso Over 3.5 Assists (+102)

I’m including Alex Caruso over 3.5 assists in my NBA parlay picks. The Thunder guard had six assists in Game 1, so I’m surprised by the line. That followed a five-assist performance against the Grizzlies, and I predict his teammates to knock down more shots in Game 2. Take the line while it’s available.

Bet on Alex Caruso Over 3.5 assists (+102)
