+503 Lakers vs. Nuggets Parlay Analysis

Los Angeles Lakers vs. Denver Nuggets, 8:30PM ET

LEG 1: Nikola Jokic Over 10.5 Assists

The sportsbooks keep wanting to set a low total on Nikola Jokic's assists and we're going to take the bait. Jokic is doing historic stuff this postseason, but he has elevated to an even higher level through two games in these Western Conference Finals. The former MVP is effectively dealing with the double team that the Lakers are throwing at him, often finding an open man for the shot. He is also lethal when backing down his matchup in the post, distributing to shooters on the perimeter. There's simply no shortages of options for Jokic to get his teammates involved and our model is anticipating yet another double-digit assist night with 16 assists predicted.

LEG 2: Anthony Davis Over 24.5 Points

After a dominant 40-point performance in Game 1, Davis went cold in Game 2 with just 18 points on 4-15 shooting - so you know what that means. The only thing consistent about AD this postseason has been his inconsistency. He often bounces back well after a quiet game, and given the stakes, we're expecting Darvin Ham to implore Davis to shoot more and to be more assertive on offense. This is a low line for someone who we know can score anywhere from 30 to 40 points if he can stay locked in. Our projections have the Lakers big man scoring 25 points.


LEG 3: LeBron James Over 7.5 Assists

LeBron's assist line has gone up a full dime since Game 2 where he collected 10 assists as the Lakers primary ball handler. Heading back home, James is an even better performer on the assist totals these playoffs, tallying averages of 7 assists with 14 potential assists. The Lakers are 0-2 down and a 40+ minute performance will be required from the King to try and pull this one out of the fire. We have him down for 8 assists.
