The Denver Nuggets won perhaps a crucial Game 3 in Miami and got a 2-1 lead. Can the Heat answer in this Game 4 matchup and tie the NBA Finals before the series shifts back to Colorado? Make sure to check out the best Nuggets/Heat prop bets!

Kyle Lowry Prop Bet: Over 8.5 points

Lowry came to Miami to bring his playoff experience. Alongside Kevin Love, Lowry is the only Heat player who actually won the NBA title, and Erik Spoelstra surely counts on him to provide leadership in this critical situation. Despite being a 37-year-old, Lowry averages 25.3 minutes per game in the playoffs and scores 8.9 points per contest. His numbers dropped compared to the regular season, but Lowry was solid so far in the series against the Nuggets.

The former Raptor scored at least nine points in all three games and hit six three-pointers in total. Tyler Herro is not cleared to return from a hand injury yet, so I’m sure Lowry will get 25-30 minutes in Game 4. Lowry failed to make a triple in just five of 21 playoff games this year and is 50.0% from the floor in each of the previous five. The Heat will need their perimeter shooting to click on Friday, which wasn’t the case in Game 3.  Lowry is one of the players the Heat can turn to in a situation when they trail, and that’s why you need to cash in on Over 8.5 points.

My Prop bet Pick: Lowry over 8.5 points

Gabe Vincent Prop Bet: Over 12.5 points

Vincent returned back down to earth following a fantastic 23-point display in Game 2. He scored only seven points in the most recent duel with 2-of-10 shooting, his worst performance in 11 games. Considering Butler and Adebayo played well offensively, the lack of production from the Heat’s third top-scorer in the playoffs cost them in Game 3.

Vincent is averaging 13.6 ppg in the postseason and spends more than 30 minutes on the floor per game in the series. After combining for nine three-pointers in Game 1 and Game 2, Vincent made only one triple last time out. He got into early foul trouble in the opening half, and some of the calls were unlucky, so I believe Vincent will not have the same issues again. Miami attempted 35+ shots from downtown in each game of the series; Gabe took at least six per game. Backing Vincent to score over 12.5 points is one of the best Nuggets/Heat Game 4 prop bets you can invest in.

Aaron Gordon Prop Bet: Over 6.5 rebounds

Gordon is coming off his second double-double of the playoffs as he emerged as the Nuggets’ third star in this series. Michael Porter Jr. struggles at the moment, and his minutes significantly dropped, which is a chance for Gordon to shine. Gordon is Denver’s third-best rebounder in the postseason with 5.9 boards per contest, and he posted 6+ rebounds in the last four outings.

Forward grabbed 17 boards in Game 2 and Game 3, and given he is logging 35.7 mpg in the playoffs, I think he can get a minimum of seven rebounds on Friday. Two or three will surely come on offense – another strong reason to consider this one of the best Nuggets/Heat prop bets available.

My Prop bet Pick: Gordon over 6.5 rebounds

Bruce Brown Prop Bet: Over 3.5 rebounds

Brown is Denver’s sixth man and is a valuable asset to the Nuggets, particularly when Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Michael Porter Jr. are not playing well. Brown has a +24 plus/minus in the series and logged 27+ minutes in the last two games. His versatility makes him good, and he usually leads the second unit in both points and rebounds.

Brown registered 5+ boards in seven of the last nine games, and we need him to get four in Game 4. The Nuggets are outjumping the Heat, thanks to Brown (among others), who averages 4.0 boards in the series. I’ll bet my money on him to add four more on Friday, and so should you.

Christian Braun Prop Bet: Over 4.5 points

Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray wrote history with outstanding Game 3 displays, but the most pleasant surprise for Denver and unsolved enigma for the Heat was Christian Braun. The NCAA champion with Kansas, Braun, took advantage of Michael Porter Jr.’s struggles in the last two games and impressed with only one missed field goal (10-of-11).

The rookie contributed 15 points in the Game 3 victory, and he will definitely get another opportunity to impress off the bench. It seems that Michael Malone found another weapon to hurt Miami, and because of Braun’s athleticism and resilience, the rookie deserves 15-20 minutes here. Braun doesn’t shoot threes; however, he can attack the rim and score some easy layups/dunks off turnovers. For my money, Braun scoring over 4.5 points is a Nuggets/Heat prop bet you can’t ignore.
