Nuggets Win Game 3 in Overtime Against the Thunder

Denver Wins in Overtime and Takes Control of an Increasingly Unpredictable Series

On an exciting night, the Denver Nuggets showed why they remain one of the most dangerous teams in the playoffs. They beat the Oklahoma City Thunder  113-104 in overtime and took a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference semifinal series. It was a key win, shaking up the NBA Playoffs odds on top betting platforms.

What impressed most was how Denver bounced back after a humiliating 43-point loss in the previous game. With a balanced attack led by Jamal Murray (27 points), Aaron Gordon (22), and a strong performance by Michael Porter Jr., despite his injury, the Nuggets secured a win that fired up their fans… and also the betting world.

Experience and Calm Under Pressure

The Denver Nuggets were trailing on the scoreboard for most of the game, but they never lost control. Their composure during key moments, especially in overtime, was the difference-maker. With an 11-2 run in the extra period, Denver crushed the hopes of a Thunder team flying high.

When you see this kind of performance, the NBA 2nd Half Lines often shift in Denver’s favor—especially when they’re playing at home, like they will in Game 4 at Ball Arena this Sunday.

A Rough Night for Jokic… but still Impactful

Even though Nikola Jokic didn’t have his best game (20 points, 16 rebounds, and 6 assists), his impact was still clear. He missed all 10 of his three-point attempts and had eight turnovers, but his presence in the paint and leadership were crucial.

Regarding NBA Odds,  Jokic is always a key factor for bettors—even in challenging games like this.

Thunder Came Close… but not enough

On the Oklahoma City Thunder side, Jalen Williams stood out with 32 points, while Shai Gilgeous-Alexander couldn’t find his rhythm, scoring 18 points on 31% shooting. SGA missed a crucial shot in the final seconds of regulation, opening the door for Denver to take over in overtime.

Experts agree that if SGA returns to its usual level, the NBA 1st Half Lines could quickly swing back in favor of the Thunder in the next games.

What to expect in Game 4?

With the series at 2-1 and momentum now on Denver’s side, Game 4 is shaping up to be a high-voltage clash. Bettors are already studying every detail: Will Jokic return to form? Can SGA lead his team like he did during the regular season?

One thing is sure: NBA Playoffs odds will shift play by play, and this series is gold for those who know how to time their bets just right.
