Best NBA Prop Picks: Lock In This Expert's Best NBA Prop Bets for Thursday
The Denver Nuggets will look to make the Western Conference Finals for the second consecutive season. After falling 2-0 in their series to the Timberwolves, the Nuggets stormed back with three wins of their own.
Now they're one win away from moving on to the next round.
I've added three player props for tonight's standalone matchup below.
May 16 Best NBA Player Props
Jamal Murray Over 4.5 Rebounds (+114) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Jamal Murray only added one rebound in Tuesday's win over Minnesota. However, he had earned at least four rebounds in his last three games and brought down at least five in two of the previous three games, including a 13-rebound performance in Game 2.
Even in the first round against the Lakers, Murray averaged more than 4.5 rebounds per game. With the Nuggets having a chance to make it into the next round, even with Murray's injury, don't be surprised if he plays 40 minutes tonight.
Mike Conley Under Under 5.5 Assists (+114) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
I'd be more concerned about Mike Conley's injury heading into tonight's game. He's got an Achilles injury that ultimately kept him out of the game on Tuesday.
If you don't play games in the playoffs.
Heading into this one, he's questionable. However, if he plays, it'd be silly not to take his Unders across the board if he plays. Achilles injuries are hard to play with.
Mike Conley Under 10.5 Points (+105) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
That said, Conley has averaged 10.8 points per game in this series. However, he's gone Under 10.5 points in two of his four games in the series. If anything, he'll be limited in terms of minutes or ability.
I'd be shocked if he played more than 30 minutes, and I'd also be shocked if he became a major offensive weapon in tonight's showdown.
After all, he's attempted no more than nine shots in three of the four games this series in the first place.
Let's back these Conley Unders for tonight's standalone game.
