Murray and Brooks 5 Leg Desert Parlay Nuggets at Suns, leg by leg

Two Jamal Murray lines and three Phoenix starters at low numbers, with Cameron Johnson out for Denver. What each player has done in every game this season, what the ticket pays, and what beats each leg.

The short version

Two Jamal Murray lines, one three and 15 points, and three Phoenix starters: Dillon Brooks's three, and 10 points each from Miles Bridges and Jalen Green. Murray has 42, 19 and 23 in his last three games after 6 in the opener. Green finished at 10 and 12 in two of his three games, so he is the thin part. At Kalshi's asks the five legs need 48.5% together and pay 2.06x, so $100 pays $206.13.

Jamal Murray 1+ made threes

Who: Denver's starting point guard.

The number: 0, 8, 3 and 5 made threes so far, on 0 of 1, 8 of 16, 3 of 6 and 5 of 11, after 3.3 a game across 75 games last season. 1+ sits at 90 to 93 cents, 91.5% in the middle.

The matchup: He has played 36 to 43 minutes every night. He made 8 threes in the overtime win over New Orleans and 5 of 11 at New Orleans on Wednesday.

What beats it: The opener at Oklahoma City: one three attempt in 37 minutes. That is the night this leg fears.

Dillon Brooks 1+ made threes

Who: Phoenix's starting forward.

The number: 1, 1 and 3 made threes so far, on 1 of 2, 1 of 3 and 3 of 10, after 2.3 a game across 56 games last season. 1+ sits at 84 to 87 cents, 85.5% in the middle.

The matchup: He scored 19 at Oklahoma City on Monday and took 10 threes, his most of the season.

What beats it: Few attempts. He took two threes in 27 minutes of a 124-83 loss at Portland. A night like that leaves one or two chances.

Jamal Murray 15+ points

Who: Denver's starting point guard.

The number: 6, 42, 19 and 23 points so far, after 25.4 a game across 75 games last season. 15+ sits at 83 to 86 cents, 84.5% in the middle.

The matchup: He has scored at least 19 in each of his last three games, all three with Cameron Johnson out.

What beats it: He scored 6 in the 96-84 loss at Oklahoma City. A slow, low-scoring game like that one.

Miles Bridges 10+ points

Who: Phoenix's starting forward.

The number: 8, 16 and 17 points so far, after 17.1 a game across 77 games last season. 10+ sits at 83 to 84 cents, 83.5% in the middle.

The matchup: He has played 32 or 33 minutes in each of his last two games and scored 16 and 17.

What beats it: He scored 8 in the opener at Portland, 0 of 5 from three, in a 41-point loss. A blowout and a cold night together.

Jalen Green 10+ points

Who: Phoenix's starting guard.

The number: 10, 12 and 20 points so far, after 17.8 a game across 32 games last season. 10+ sits at 81 to 83 cents, 82% in the middle.

The matchup: He scored 20 at Oklahoma City on Monday in 31 minutes, his most of the season.

What beats it: This is the thinnest leg. He scored exactly 10 in the opener and 12 against Golden State, in 25 and 26 minutes.

Kalshi bid and ask read 2026-10-30 9:31 AM PT. The number beside each leg is Agent Dime’s own estimate, not a market price.

The price

Multiply the five asks and the ticket costs 48.5¢ for every dollar it pays: 2.06x, so $100 pays $206.13. The market’s own chances, the middle of each bid and ask, multiply to 45.3%. Agent Dime has all five landing at 49.1%.

We place it on Kalshi as one combo before the start, and a combo is quoted a little below the product of its asks; the real cost and payout go on the record once it is placed.

How it was built

  • Murray twice. His three and his points, after 16 made threes in his last three games. This season's box scores are from ESPN.
  • Phoenix's starters at low lines. Brooks needs one three, Bridges and Green 10 points each.
  • Left off on purpose. Nikola Jokic and Devin Booker.

Where it can break

All five legs have to land. The market's own chances multiply to 45.3%, under the 48.5% the asks need, which is the price of buying five lines at the ask instead of the middle.

Murray carries two legs. His one quiet night, 6 points on one three-point attempt at Oklahoma City, would have sunk both.

Kalshi's winner market is wide: Denver at 48 to 64 cents and Phoenix at 35 to 52. Phoenix last played Monday and Denver on Wednesday at New Orleans. Cameron Johnson, Alpha Diallo, Julian Strawther and Spencer Jones are out for Denver. Mark Williams is out for Phoenix and Oso Ighodaro is day-to-day. I re-check both official reports before tip.

Denver visits Phoenix at 7 PM PT (10 PM ET) at Mortgage Matchup Center, on NBA League Pass, Suns Live and Arizona's Family 3TV.

The Suns are 1-2 after losing 124-83 at Portland, beating Golden State 131-122 at home and losing 125-114 at Oklahoma City on Monday, when Green scored 20. On Kalshi the Nuggets to win cost 48 to 64 cents and the Suns 35 to 52 cents, read at 9:31 AM PT.
