NBA Finals best bets: Two player props for Game 4 of Nuggets-Heat

By Griffin Carroll | Last updated 6/8/23

Game 4 of the NBA Finals is Friday night, and we've got a full menu of player props already available. It's never too early to explore, so we'll touch a pair of props on both ends for the Nuggets-Heat game Friday in Miami.

Jamal Murray over 7.5 assists (-123 CZR)

Nuggets guard Jamal Murray is fresh off a triple-double and has been awesome up to this point of the NBA Finals. His facilitation on this offense has been a clear value add, dishing far more assists than we've grown accustomed to over this postseason run.

After exceeding 7.5 assists just four out of 15 times leading up to the NBA Finals, Murray has dropped 10 dimes in all three games here against Miami.

His role is to create offense, and that can come in a variety of ways. Seeing how well he's finding open teammates, it feels prudent to run his assists prop back for Game 4 as Denver looks to take control of the series.

If you wanted to bet on Murray hitting double-digit assists for the fourth straight game, FanDuel offers Murray 10+ assists at +240.

Caleb Martin over 9.5 points (+104 FD)

After two down games to start the NBA Finals, Caleb Martin scratched his way to 10 points with some impressive makes. It's not the Martin level we grew accustomed to in the Eastern Conference Finals, but he seems to be trending in the right direction.

He got off nine field-goal attempts in Game 3, five of which came beyond the arc. If he can maintain and exceed that volume, this is a discount price on Martin's points.

Martin has gone for 10+ points in seven of his last nine home games and with Miami's back against the wall, we expect more involvement out of the forward.
