Nuggets vs Pacers Player Prop Bets – Aaron Gordon Over 6.5 Rebounds (-132)
Aaron Gordon has an excellent matchup in this one. Indiana allows the league-high 28.4 ppg to the opposing power forwards along with 11.1 rpg, which is the fourth-most in the NBA. Although he’s not very consistent when it comes to scoring, Gordon is a reliable rebounder of late.
The former Magic recorded ten boards in three of the last four games, while he managed to score over 16.5 points (his line for today’s game) only once in that span. That’s why I would like to avoid betting on points. However, if you opt for such a bet, I suggest taking a double-double at great +350 odds.
Ten days ago when the Nuggets previously met the Pacers, Gordon had 20 points and ten rebounds. In his career against the Pacers, Gordon averages 7.0 boards, which is exactly what we need to win this bet.
Myles Turner Over 6.5 Rebounds (+105)
For the second pick in the Nuggets vs Pacers Player Prop Bets, I have another big guy. I like seeing such high odds on a center to grab seven boards. Myles Turner is the Pacers’ top rebounder with 7.1 rpg, but the truth is, Indiana is the second-worst rebounding team with 40.5 boards per game.
I am aware that Turner could get into early foul trouble as he’ll be guarding the best player on the planet, Nikola Jokic. Still, I think Myles will put up a solid performance after the latest dud against the Suns (12 pts and 2 reb).
Turner did register 7+ rebounds in five of the last nine games. He is a well-known rim and paint protector, and I am sure he will get at least five or six defensive rebounds. Turner averages 1.8 offensive rebounds per game this year. The Nuggets allow 14.50 boards to the opposing centers. In his career against Denver, Turner averages 6.9 rpg.
