Thunder vs Nuggets Best Player Props Today
-
Michael Porter Jr Under 11.5 Points (-120)
My NBA props include Michael Porter Jr under 10.5 points. He has been disappointing in this series, posting totals of two and eight points. His lack of production is why the Nuggets have struggled compared to recent years, and his struggles could continue in Game 3.

-
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 32.5 Points (-112)
It’s good NBA betting news for bettors of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. He scored 34 points in limited minutes in Game 2, and I’ll happily take the same line for Game 3. He’s an elite scorer, and he has the best mid-range game in the NBA. The MVP contender is well worth including in picks.

Alex Caruso Over 2.5 Rebounds (-152)
Alex Caruso didn’t play many minutes in Game 2, but that was situational. The Thunder were so far in front that they were able to rest players. Caruso could grab a few rebounds, as we expect the Nuggets to put up plenty of shots.
