The Nuggets are visiting the Timberwolves for Game 6 of this first-round series. The Timberwolves hold a 3-2 advantage and can advance with a win. Denver is favored by 6.5 points on DraftKings Sportsbook, with the game total set at 225.5 points.

Let’s dive into my favorite Jamal Murray player prop for Thursday’s contest.

Best Jamal Murray prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook

Jamal Murray 2+ Points in First Three Minutes (-130)

With the Nuggets’ backs against the wall in Game 5, Murray wasted no time getting to work. He scored 24 points, with three of those points coming in the first three minutes. Denver faces elimination once again Thursday night, and Murray should set the tone with some quick points after tip-off.

Murray has scored at least two points in the first three minutes of eight of his last 10 games. This season, the guard is leading the Nuggets with 2.3 points per game and a 26.8% usage rate in the first three minutes, while shooting an impressive 53% from the field in this situation.

Murray has been a thorn in Minnesota’s side all season, averaging 28.4 points across nine matchups (including playoffs). Expect him to cash this quick hits prop.
