Top NBA First Basket Betting Picks & Predictions: Spurs vs. Nuggets
I’m going to target the Nuggets in this matchup against a hot Spurs team. The Nuggets have been successful on First Basket props, scoring the first field goal in half of their games. In addition, they’ve managed to score their first field goal on 2 attempts per game.
No one on the Nuggets is putting up more shots early than Michael Porter. He’s been averaging 1.14 of Denver’s first three field goals in the early part of the season. Because of this, he’s cashed the prop a couple of times himself.
So long as the Nuggets continue to look in his direction, I will target him as a play.
Pick: Michael Porter Jr.
