Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #2 – Nuggets Points Over 121.5 – 2.204.
There’s virtually no chance for the Houston Rockets to take points away from Denver. Especially since the Colorado team is approaching the game with all of its leaders in the lineup. Nikola Jokic and the company should have a solid win over the Texas team.
The Denver Nuggets are averaging 115 points per home game this season. This time, the Nuggets will host a major regular-season underdog. Things are looking up for Denver, who may have a decent shot at filling their opponent’s basket.
The Denver Nuggets had all the absentees back in the lineup after the covid and handled the difficult Clippers (114-104).
The star trio of Jokic, Gordon and Murray combined for 69 points against one of the main contenders.
The Denver Nuggets are in third place in their conference. In addition to 11 wins, the team from Colorado has suffered seven defeats. The game against the Clippers will not be an easy one, despite the odds in favour of the visitors.
The Denver Nuggets have won seven head-to-head games in a row.
Despite a decidedly weak roster, the Texans can accomplish feats, two of which they did in their last two games, beating the OKC Thunder (118-105) and Atlanta Hawks (128-122).
Jalen Green was the best of his team, scoring 28 points in one game and 30 in the other. Alperen Şengün had 19 rebounds in his last game against the OKC Thunder.
The Houston Rockets have lost the last seven games against Denver, so the probability of a win in the upcoming game between these rivals is next to nil.
The Denver Nuggets are averaging 114.5 points per game this season.
In our opinion, the teams will take to the field with the following line-ups:
Denver Nuggets: Jamal Murray – Bruce Brown – Kentavious Caldwell-Pope – Aaron Gordon – Nikola Jokić.
Houston Rockets: Kevin Porter Jr. – Jalen Green – Eric Gordon – Jabari Smith Jr. – Alperen Şengün.
Collin Gillespie (Out), Jeff Green (Out), Michael Porter Jr. (Day-to-day) and Bones Hyland (Day-to-day) are listed as injured for the Denver Nuggets.
