NBA Finals Same Game Parlays: Bam Adebayo, Aaron Gordon, Nikola Jokic (Game 3)
With the series tied 1-1, Denver goes to Miami as a 2.5-point favorite. This season has been up and down but I truly appreciate everyone who followed along for the ride. Here are a pair of same-game parlays to kick off the Finals’ move to South Beach right. Remember to shop around for the best odds/profit boost and that I will be placing one unit on each parlay.

Wednesday's Best NBA Same Game Parlay Bets

Denver Nuggets at Miami Heat
Parlay One:
- Leg 1: Aaron Gordon Over 6.5 Rebounds (+135)
- Leg 2: Jamal Murray Under 24.5 Points (-110)
- Leg 3: Alternate Under 211.5 Points (+125)
After two games, I see Miami stepping up with their top-10-ranked defense and second-to-last pace of play to control the game tonight.
It isn't entirely smart to solely base playoff betting on regular season stats but it is a good baseline. Aaron Gordon has been solid these playoffs and I continue expecting him to perform along with Denver's top-five rebound rate. With a theoretically higher number of missed shots, Gordon should capitalize on the boards.
Someone who I see takes the brunt of Miami's defense at this point in the series is Murray. He is projected at 21 points so I am quite comfortable taking his under 24.5 points.
This should be a slow, slug-it-out affair. First one to 100 wins.
Parlay Odds: +675
Parlay Two:
- Leg 1: Bam Adebayo Over 18.5 Points (-120)
- Leg 2: Gabe Vincent Over 3.5 Assists (+105)
- Leg 3: Nikola Jokic Over 12.5 Rebounds (+120)
On the other end of the spectrum, overs are simply more fun to bet, and the projections love these props.
Adebayo’s points over is one of the best bets on the BettingPros Prop Bet Cheat Sheet for tonight. Bam has scored over 20 points in each of the last two games so I'm a little surprised at how low the prop is.
Vincent’s assists over is another no brainer. He has been averaging over three assists throughout the playoffs, reaching that number in each of the last two games. To get that prop at plus money is another easy bet.
Jokic’s over props are too easy to click. The man can do it all and I fully expect his usage and minutes to be at an all-time high tonight.
Parlay Odds: +650
