Nuggets vs Thunder Prediction, Picks and odds for NBA Semifinals Game 5

NBA odds are available for the Denver Nuggets vs Oklahoma City Thunder Game 5 on Tuesday, where the Thunder are firm favorites to win. Oklahoma City evened the series 2-2 with a sluggish 92-87 victory in Game 4, and another close game is in order tonight.

Nuggets vs Thunder Semifinals Prediction

NBA finals futures give the Thunder more chance of winning, but the Nuggets could give them a scare in Game 5.

I predict the Thunder will win 118-114 in a game that could come down to the final few possessions.

Nuggets vs Thunder Best Player Props Today

• Aaron Gordon Over 15.5 Points

My NBA player props today include Aaron Gordon over 15.5 points. He has been electric for the Nuggets during the playoffs, and his jump shot has been impressive. There is no reason to suggest his form will taper off, so include him at a generous line.

• Nikola Jokic Over 27.5 Points

NBA betting news reports that Nikola Jokic hasn’t shot well during the series, but that could all change. He’s the best player on the court, and with the Nuggets needing him to fire, the reigning MVP could have his biggest playoff game yet.

• Russell Westbrook Over 3.5 Assists

I have been impressed by the overall play of Russell Westbrook, who has not only developed a corner jumper, but his assist game has been strong. He could be an assist merchant in Game 5, and bettors get good odds for the 3.5 line.

The Nuggets at +10.5 are too good to overlook. I don’t think there is much between the Nuggets and Thunder, and with everything to play for, Denver could keep it close throughout and cover the spread.
