Sunday's Best NBA First Basket Player Prop Bets: Nuggets vs. Suns

Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook

Devin Booker (+370)

Denver was excellent in the first two games at home but could not grab the 3-0 lead in Phoenix. Their offense played well, but defensively they couldn't contain the Suns' two best scorers.

Instead of the supporting cast contributing, Phoenix needed Kevin Durant and Devin Booker to score even more to get the win. That will be key to them winning this series.

Regarding first baskets, it's been the Suns up 2-1. Ayton has a 68% tip-win rate and has beaten Nikola Jokic twice. Ayton leads the team in first baskets, but the Suns have been relying on the perimeter shooting, and they'll continue to feed Booker.
