The Oklahoma City Thunder are set to host the Denver Nuggets at the Paycom Center on Friday night, with tip-off scheduled for 9:30 p.m. ET on ESPN. If you’re looking to build out a same-game parlay (SGP) of NBA player props for the Western Conference showdown, DraftKings has you covered in the Stats Hub with the SGP Optimizer tool. Start by selecting one pick – an “Anchor” bet – and choose how many legs you want. Then, this parlay picks betting tool will give you a custom NBA parlay based on games in which the Anchor bet has previously won.
DraftKings Sportsbook has Oklahoma City pegged as a 7.5-point favorite at home. The Thunder were without most of their stars against the Pistons on Wednesday, losing while Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren, Jalen Williams, Isaiah Hartenstein and Alex Caruso got a chance to heal from various bumps and bruises. Before that defeat, OKC had started 3-0 coming out of the All-Star break, bouncing back from the 18-13 stretch they took into the hiatus. As for the Nuggets, their 19-point win over the Celtics on Wednesday brought them to 2-2 post-break. While Nikola Jokic is back to full strength, Denver is still just 18-17 since December 19. The Thunder have won the only head-to-head matchup between the two squads this season, emerging with a 121-111 victory back on February 1.
If you feel good about the well-rested Thunder extending their lead atop the West, here is an NBA prediction using a SGP Anchor from the Free Trending Parlay Picks Optimizer.
- Oklahoma City Thunder Moneyline (-310)
- Cason Wallace 6+ assists (+840)
- Isaiah Joe over 12.5 points + assists (-106)
- Jaylin Williams under 14.5 points + rebounds + assists (-108)
- Lugentz Dort over 11.5 points + assists (-107)
- Isaiah Hartenstein over 9.5 points (-110)
- Aaron Wiggins under 9.5 points (-113)
- Chet Holmgren over 1.5 assists (-164)
Creating a parlay with the appropriate angles on the specific totals listed above would have hit in each of Oklahoma City’s last three wins. So, instead of simply picking Thunder moneyline at -310, you can ride these additional trends on Friday vs. the Nuggets.
Nuggets vs. Thunder SGP Parlay Odds: +32500
