Nuggets at Heat Player Prop Picks For Game 5

Jamal Murray 12+ Alt Assists (+500, FanDuel)

Murray has recorded double-digit assists in all four NBA Finals games, including a 12-assist outing in Game 4. While Nikola Jokic has been a capable facilitator as usual in this series, Murray has been the floor general, averaging just under 20 potential assists per contest. He just accomplished this feat, which makes the +500 odds you can get on him at FanDuel quite attractive. No matter what type of defensive sets the Heat decide to use, the ball will be in Murray’s hands a ton once again and he’s played 44, 39, 45 and 43 minutes in the four games so far. 

Nikola Jokic & Jamal Murray To Combine For 60+ Points & 20+ Assists (+400, BetRivers)

In Game 1, Jokic had 27 points and 14 assists while Murray had 26 points and 10 assists.

In Game 2, Jokic had 41 points and four assists while Murray had 18 points and 10 assists.

In Game 3, Jokic had 32 points and 10 assists while Murray had 34 points and 10 assists.

In Game 4, Jokic had 23 points and four assists while Murray had 15 points and 12 assists.

Therefore, the only time this specific prop hit was in Game 3. However, with a championship on the line tonight back home in Denver, I absolutely love getting this outcome at +400. We know the two-man game is a huge part of Denver's offense and combined, they've averaged 18.5 real assists on 31.3 potential assists per game in this series.

Bam Adebayo Over 24.5 Points & Over 9.5 Rebounds (+450, Caesars)

Adebayo has been a very consistent offensive contributor for the Heat in this series, posting 26 points in Game 1, 21 in Game 2, 22 in Game 3 and 20 in Game 4. While he has shot just 45.6%, the volume has been there (19.8 shot attempts per game), which is what I love to see. I also expect the Nuggets to place more focus on preventing Heat threes than keying in on him on the inside. Adebayo has been a force on the glass, recording 13, 9, 17 and 11 boards. He should see 40-plus minutes again tonight and I love this +450 number a lot.
