Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Three – Jokic’s Rebounds Under 14.5 – 1.73.
The Cleveland Cavaliers have not been able to recover from their crisis. It is unlikely that Bickerstaff will be able to play well against the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets have looked much better lately. We think they can beat the Cavaliers.
The Cleveland Cavaliers’ confidence is gone. The Cavs have not been doing a very good job defensively recently. In their last game against the Philadelphia 76ers, for example, they allowed 118 points.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are missing Jarrett Allen. Jarrett seems to be a too important player for this team. Without him, the Cavaliers’ results have worsened significantly. They have lost three of their last four games.

It is worth noting that Bickerstaff’s charges suffered another setback in the previous game. This time, they failed to defeat the Philadelphia 76ers. No matter how hard Darius Garland tried, his effort was not enough for the final success. The Cleveland Cavs lost by a score of 114-118.
In the game against the 76ers, Darius Garland scored 22 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists.

The Denver Nuggets are trying to maintain sixth place in the West. Malone’s men are doing well so far, but the Minnesota Timberwolves have cut the gap to a minimum. Between the Nuggets and the Wolves, they are now just one win. The Nuggets can’t afford to lose.
It’s worth noting that the Denver Nuggets have played well in recent games. Malone’s team even managed to pick up two wins. First, the Nuggets defeated the Philadelphia 76ers (114-110) and then dealt with the Washington Wizards (127-109).
In the game against the Wizards, Nikola Jokic scored 29 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists.
