NBA Player Props Tonight for Suns vs Nuggets: Michael Porter, Jr. Headlines My +600 SGP (March 7)

The second game of a spicy doubleheader on national television tonight will feature two teams who may find themselves meeting down the road in the playoffs, and two who shown some sore spots defensively.

The Phoenix Suns press on, looking for some form which may be hard to gain against a Denver Nuggets team which wrapped up a solid month of February just a week ago. With three losses in their last six games, however, Phoenix should come out looking strong.

Let's build a same-game parlay for Suns vs Nuggets on Friday, March 7 and lay out a few props that will work well as standalone straight bets as well.

Michael Porter, Jr. 3+ Made Threes

We'll highlight three players who should be well-positioned to score the ball here, beginning with Michael Porter, Jr.

The wing may see some increased run, and increased usage, with both Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon popping up on the injury report -- something that catches my eye given the strong matchup he'll have on the perimeter.

• The Suns sit third-worst at defending the 3 over the last two weeks of play, and on top of that they've also allowed the third-most 3-point attempts on average in the NBA.

That should be just what Porter needs to turn around his shooting luck here. He was red-hot until going down with a minor injury at the beginning of February, but since he's shot just 31% from outside.

He continues to shoot, however, averaging six attempts per game from outside -- and at better than 40% from the arc for his career and this season in particular, I have plenty of faith he can exploit a rather weak backcourt defense.

Jamal Murray 24+ Points

Speaking of poor defense, Jamal Murray should be in the best spot of all versus Tyus Jones, who is down near the bottom of the league in Estimated Plus Minus and whose lack of size can lead to trouble in stopping the 3.

• Murray has been turning around his luck unlike Porter, shooting 52.2% from outside over his last eight games and has averaged more than 28 points per game during that time.

He's hit this number in three straight, and now he will take aim at a defense which has not only struggled against outside shooting but also ranks third-worst against the long mid-range jumper in the last two weeks.

With a solid matchup against Jones and plenty of soft spots to attack, I like him to fill up the scoring column once again -- especially if one of the key names listed on the injury report for Denver are to sit.

Bol Bol 2+ Made Threes

Finally, we'll dig deep into the markets and look into a rather obscure spot on the floor where the Suns can do some damage -- the corner 3.

Denver ranks third-worst against the corner 3 in the last two weeks and has allowed a fair amount of looks there compared to most other zones, and Bol Bol has made a point of getting his shooting stroke going of late.

In five straight starts, Bol has taken four or more 3-pointers all but once -- which came in a nine-minute showing last time out against the LA Clippers. He should resume normal minutes here with Phoenix still somewhat shorthanded, and in shooting 44% from outside during that time the forward should take full advantage.

Bol is taking a ton of shots out of the corner this year, and while it took a while his accuracy is finally improving. I love this as a sneaky third leg.
