Three Expert-Picked Prop Bets to Hammer For Suns-Nuggets Game 4

In this story:
The Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets prepare themselves for a Game 4 battle that can swing the series in any direction.
For the Suns, a win would mean the series is tied 2-2 heading back to Denver, ensuring at minimum that a Game 6 will be needed between the two sides.
For the Nuggets, a win would see them emerge to a 3-1 lead with an opportunity to close things out at home on Tuesday.
Whether you're a Suns, Nuggets or general NBA fan, there will be plenty of action on tonight's game. Here's three of the best prop bets we could find as game time inches closer to us:
Covers.com: Jamal Murray UNDER 24.5 PTS
Jason Logan: "Murray, who averages 26.5 points so far in the NBA Playoffs, has a point prop of 24.5 (Under -122) after Game 3’s high-scoring showing. That’s smack in between his totals of 23.5 points for Games 1 and 3 and 25.5 for Game 2.
"Game 4 player projections for Murray range from as low as 19.8 to as high as 22.3 but none come close to his prop total of 24.5 points for Sunday. I have him pegged for just over 21 points, with Phoenix playing rough and his shooting woes continuing on the road (16-for-44 from the floor, including 1-for-15 from 3-point land the past two games).
"On the season, Murray saw his production dip away from Denver, scoring just under 20 points per road game on 44.3 shooting (vs. 20.7 ppg and 46.3% at home).
"Shop around for the best price tag on the Under, with the vig ranging from -122 to -130 and some shops moving the total down to 23.5 after opening at 24.5 points."
Action Network: Devin Booker OVER 2.5, 3.5 three-pointers
Andrew O'Connor-Wats: "The Suns are still figuring out the rotations beyond their top four guys, so any role player props could be a big risk. I do like some Booker props, specifically his 3-point line, which is set at 2.5 at most books. He only took one 3-pointer in Game 1, but the Suns have made a concerted effort to shoot more from deep since.
"Booker has attempted eight in each of the past two games and made four and five in Games 2 and 3. I’ll take the over 2.5 for a half-unit and over 3.5 (+190) to win a half-unit."
FanDuel: Deandre Ayton UNDER 10.5 PTS
Larry Rupp: "While Booker has taken over for the Suns, Deandre Ayton has disappeared. The 2018 No. 1 overall pick put together his worst performance of the postseason in Game 3 with only 4 points on a 2-of-6 shooting mark. Ayton played in a postseason-low 26 minutes, too, as he lost playing time to Jock Landale.
"Landale gave the Suns a much-needed spark around the rim and provided a few hustle plays as well. Nikola Jokic's presence down low was already going to limit Ayton's scoring chances in Game 4, and a smaller role only makes the idea of Phoenix's center balling out seem more unrealistic."
