Miami Heat at Denver Nuggets
- Leg 1: Nikola Jokic Triple Double (+100)
- Leg 2: Christian Braun Over 19.5 Points + Rebounds (-112)
- Leg 3: Tyler Herro Over 3.5 Made Three-Pointers (-122)
Even though Denver has been dealing with injuries to key contributors Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon, this has not prevented the team from finding success over the last three games.
It goes without saying that Nikola Jokic is going to show up, yet, it's been the production from the supporting cast that has resulted in three straight wins; with over 120 points scored in each contest.
We will be focusing on three separate game props that have recently cashed, and there's good reason to believe this will also be the case in this matchup as well.
Jokic is a triple-double threat every time he takes the floor. When situations call for the reigning MVP to be the primary ball-handler, so many options open up in regard to props. There truly is not a bad stat combination for Jokic tonight. Might as well take the highest payout!
Since Murray has missed time after suffering a concussion against Minnesota on November 1, the Denver center is averaging 26 points, 16.6 rebounds, and 12.6 assists. Jokic was also one assist shy of producing a triple-double in three straight games.
As of now, Murray has been designated with a questionable tag. The Nuggets play this evening, again on Sunday, and after that do not play until Friday. His status is certainly a gamble as of right now, however, it would make more sense to allow additional rest for a concussion sustained a week ago considering Denver does not play for four nights.
Christian Braun has shown tremendous growth in his third term in the NBA. The young shooting guard has inherited a starting role and has been nothing short of excellent to begin the season.
Braun has now cleared 19.5 points and rebounds in 5-of-8 contests; including successfully exceeding that threshold in the last 4-of-5 games. The Denver guard is currently averaging 16 points with 5.3 rebounds on the season.
What stands out most about the improvement in scoring is a newly found confidence in regard to field goal attempts, as well as tremendous efficiency. Braun has attempted fewer than 11 field goals in 2-of-8 games, with a shooting percentage of 53.5 from the field.
The points are heavily baked into this selection. As long as the Nuggets guard can get to 15-to-17 points, this prop should go over the suggested 19.5 points + rebounds.
There's simply not much to the last leg of our SGP. It's been a tried-and-true point of attack this season, and as long as the odds stay within reason, we will continue to pounce on this option.
Denver is conceding 13.8 three-pointers each contest, and doing so at a 35.9% clip. Over the last two games that number has increased to 14.5 on 36.7% shooting. As for Herro, he is knocking down four three-pointers in each contest on 8.1 attempts.
Herro has exceeded 3.5 three-pointers in three of the last four games. The only contest where he fell short was a 20-minute outing against Washington; a game where Miami was heavily in front throughout, and won by 20 points.
Full disclosure, if Jamal Murray does not play, feel free to add the points + rebounds + assists combination for Russell Westbrook to this SGP as well. He has cashed in both games with Murray out.
