Nuggets vs Heat: Best Player Props for Game 2
The Miami Heat are looking to bounce back after a tough Game 1 loss to the Denver Nuggets. With the series shifting to Miami for Games 2-4, the Heat will be looking to take advantage of their home court advantage.
Here are some of the best player props to consider for Game 2 of the NBA Finals:
Denver Nuggets
- Nikola Jokic - OVER 27.5 Points: Jokic was dominant in Game 1, putting up a triple-double with 27 points, 10 rebounds, and 14 assists. With the Heat likely to focus on limiting his passing lanes, expect Jokic to look for more scoring opportunities.
- Jamal Murray - OVER 21.5 Points: Murray was a scoring machine in Game 1, finishing with 26 points. With the Heat likely to focus on Jokic, Murray should have plenty of opportunities to take advantage of mismatches.
- Aaron Gordon - OVER 11.5 Rebounds: Gordon was a force on the boards in Game 1, grabbing 12 rebounds. With the Heat's lack of size, expect Gordon to continue to dominate the glass.
Miami Heat
- Jimmy Butler - OVER 25.5 Points: Butler was the only Heat player to score over 20 points in Game 1. With the Heat needing to find scoring outside of Butler, expect him to be more aggressive and look for his shot early and often.
- Bam Adebayo - OVER 17.5 Points: Adebayo struggled in Game 1, scoring only 13 points. However, with the Heat needing a boost in scoring, look for Adebayo to be more assertive and attack the basket.
- Kyle Lowry - OVER 4.5 Assists: Lowry struggled in Game 1, but he is known for his ability to facilitate the offense. With the Heat needing to find ways to get the ball moving, expect Lowry to be more involved in the offense and dish out more assists.
Other Player Props to Consider
- Nikola Jokic - OVER 11.5 Assists: Jokic is a triple-double threat every night, and the Heat will have a tough time stopping his passing.
- Jimmy Butler - OVER 7.5 Assists: Butler is a capable passer, and the Heat will need him to create scoring opportunities for his teammates.
- Bam Adebayo - OVER 10.5 Rebounds: Adebayo is a strong rebounder, and the Heat will need him to control the glass against the Nuggets' size advantage.
