NBA Player Props Today for Nuggets vs Suns: Kevin Durant Leads My +365 SGP (Dec 25)

Publish Date: 12/25/2024
Fact checked by: Allan Howe

The Denver Nuggets are hot, winning five out of their last six games with some formidable offenses struggling to find a way past them. Next on the menu is a Phoenix Suns team which remains without Devin Booker and has struggled as a result.

Phoenix has now lost two straight without Booker in the lineup, and is now without Grayson Allen as well which will complicate matters here but could mean more money-making opportunities for us.

Let's build a same-game parlay for Nuggets vs Suns on Wednesday, December 25 and lay out a few props that will work well as standalone straight bets as well.

NBA Parlay Predictions for Nuggets vs Suns

DraftKings NBA Odds for Nuggets vs Suns SGP: +365

  • Kevin Durant 30+ Points
  • Monte Morris 7+ Points
  • Nikola Jokic 2+ Made Threes

Our best betting promotions list has even more options for you to profit from if you are looking for more offers!

Kevin Durant 30+ Points

The song has remained the same in the last few games for Kevin Durant, who's been relied upon for the entirety of the offense without Booker.

He chipped in 37 points against Indiana when Booker initially went down, and followed that up with a 43-point night against Detroit before settling back down a bit against the Nuggets the last time these two played this week.

Durant was limited to just 23 points on Monday night thanks to a blowout, but we can reasonably expect a decent showing on the offensive end here with his unquestioned volume in a good matchup.

The veteran has seen a bump of around 9% in Usage Rate with Booker off the floor -- a ridiculous number and one which far and away leads this team. He will be shooting at a defense ranked in the bottom 10 of the league in the mid-range this month to boot, and he did at least shoot 53.3% from the floor in Monday's loss.

Monte Morris 7+ Points

We simply must capitalize on two injuries in the backcourt, and it seems the best way to do that is with Monte Morris.

  • Though he's been used sporadically this year, Morris was granted over 20 minutes last game -- and while you may assume that it was simply because of a blowout, the minutes came because Allen's injury shortened the rotation to a near-untenable point.

Morris found his way to seven points in that one, and I like his chances of repeating the seven-point showing with the majority of his shots coming from the mid-range, where the Nuggets have allowed a ton of buckets.

Nikola Jokic 2+ Made Threes

The Suns have had plenty of struggles defensively in their own right, and while there are many facets of the game in which they've been torched the arc is what's most worth looking at here.

Phoenix has allowed the 11th-most 3-point shots on average this month according to Cleaning the Glass, and sits just 26th in 3-point field goal defense in the split.

  • In a twist, Nikola Jokic should be the man to make life most difficult around the arc for this porous Suns defense.

Jokic knocked down four triples last go around against Phoenix, and it was hardly a fluke. Jamal Murray is currently battling injury, and Michael Porter, Jr. has been trying his luck inside the arc a bit more -- something that became even more true when guarded by Durant.

The big man has hit two or more shots from 3 in three straight, averaging five attempts in all this month. I like the trends to continue.
