You can't miss out on watching LeBron James play in the playoffs. Time is ticking, and he's still putting on show after show.
Meanwhile, the future of our game is in the hands of players like Nikola Jokic. Jokic has already won multiple MVPs and probably deserved another one this year.
But that's beside the point.
It will be one helluva series between the Lakers and the Nuggets. Here are some same-game parlays to keep you sweating throughout Game 1.
NBA Same-Game Parlays for Tuesday
Nuggets vs. Lakers Same-Game Parlay
3-Leg Same-Game Parlay Odds (+447) (Bet $100 to collect $547) Click here to see which sportsbooks have the best odds
- Michael Porter Jr. Under 15.5 Points (-125)
- Aaron Gordon Under 13.5 Points (-113)
- Nikola Jokic Over 27.5 Points (-130)
Michael Porter Jr. hit 16 or more points regularly in the NBA regular season. But in the playoffs, he's been nowhere to be found. Porter averaged 12.8 points per game in his last series against the Suns and only reached more than 16 points in two of six games.
Meanwhile, Aaron Gordon started off his playoffs red hot. But he's cooled off since. Gordon finished his series against the Suns with 12.8 points per game. However, he scored 11 points or fewer in four straight games for the Nuggets. He even shot a series-low seven shots in Game 6.
But if those two aren't going to score, someone will. It'll be Nikola Jokic, who averaged nearly 35 points per game against the Suns in his last series. Jokic has earned over 30 points per game in the playoffs and continues to make scoring around the rim look easy.

3-Leg Same-Game Parlay Odds (+386) (Bet $100 to collect $486) Click here to see which sportsbooks have the best odds
- Austin Reaves Over 3.5 Assists (-136)
- Nikola Jokic Over 9.5 Assists (-128)
- Jeff Green Under 2.5 Rebounds (-180)
Austin Reaves has been a game-changer for the Lakers. He averaged 3.7 assists per game against the Warriors but added at least four assists in three straight. He came alive when he was needed the most. Look for Reaves to take his momentum from the last series and continue it into this series.
A classic Nikola Jokic triple-double could be in store tonight. Jokic added 34.5 points, 10.3 assists and 13.2 rebounds per game against the Suns. The Lakers are a better rebounding team and a better defense too. But Jokic added at least 11 assists in each of his last four games to get into the Western Conference Finals. He and Jamal Murray are about to put on a show against the Lakers.
Meanwhile, Jeff Green played just 17 minutes per game for the Nuggets in their last series. He won't get a lot of minutes and has earned two or fewer rebounds in four straight games.
