3 Prop Bets For The Nuggets vs. Nets (January 12, 2021)

The Nuggets are off to a slow start after their trip to the Western Conference Finals last season. Despite entering this year with high expectations, Denver is 5-5 after 10 games. They have a chance to score an impressive win against Kevin Durant and the Nets on Tuesday night.

Here is the current line on Nuggets vs. Nets at FanDuel Colorado Sportsbook:

Denver Nuggets +1.5 (-110) // +102 // O 231.5 (-110)
Brooklyn Nets -1.5 (-110) // -120// U 231.5 (-110)

As they travel to Barclays Center to take on this Eastern Conference contender, let’s take a look at some of the best prop bets of the night for Colorado sports bettors.

Paul Millsap Over 4.5 Rebounds (-150)

These odds aren’t great, but we feel like this bet on FOX Bet Colorado is a complete lock to hit. The Nets struggle to keep physical power forwards in check and Paul Millsap fits that bill. Although Kevin Durant is a solid defender at the four spot, he hasn’t rebounded as well as he can so far this year.

Despite the fact that he’s only averaging 4.2 rebounds per game, Millsap should be able to scrounge up enough rebounds to hit this over. The Nets are among the worst rebounding teams in the NBA and they will likely struggle with Millsap’s physicality.

Will Barton Over 3.5 Assists (+140)

This bet at William Hill Colorado is not a lock to hit, but we love the odds on this Will Barton over. Since entering the starting lineup, Barton has upped his assists per game to 3.7 and he’s dropped at least four dimes in three of six games.

The Nuggets and Nets are going to put up a ton of points which means that Barton should have plenty of opportunities to rack up assists. Denver is looking to finish off a three-game Eastern Conference road trip with their third win. Barton was instrumental in those first two wins and we expect more of the same against the Nets.

Paul Millsap Over 9.5 Points (-122) + Caris LeVert Over 20.5 Points (-106) + Nets Win (-120)

This Same Game Parlay at FanDuel Sportsbook Colorado is an absolute steal. Again, Millsap is going to have an opportunity to put up decent numbers against these Nets. The veteran big man is averaging 10.9 points per game this year. Look for him to fly past the over on Tuesday night.

As for the other two legs of this parlay, have faith in the Nets. Caris LeVert is only averaging 18.4 points per game, but Brooklyn will need his scoring punch as Kyrie Irving continues his sabbatical. LeVert has scored more than 20.5 points in his last four games and he’s averaging 27.5 in those contests.

As for the Nets getting it done, they have beaten the Nuggets in three of their last four games. Even as the roster turns over, Brooklyn seems to have Denver’s number.

A $100 wager on this Same Game Parlay would net a profit of $527.53 as of Tuesday morning.
