Match Predict – Handicap (+6.5) for Raptors
The Denver Nuggets are doing all they can to finish in the play-off zone. You can see Nikola Jokic and company are trying, but injuries have followed the team almost all season, so even sixth place in the West is not a bad result at the moment.
The Toronto Raptors aim to continue their winning streak. The Raptors are one step away from the top six in the East, so Nick Nurse’s team has a lot to look forward to. In our opinion, the visitors will show a decent game.
Total Match Points – Under 229.5
It is unlikely that the Nuggets will be able to perform their best in attack, as there are so many injured players. The Raptors have a defensive style of play, so we suggest betting on total less.
Home Side Points – Under 116.5
The Nuggets have scored more than 117.5 points in only two of their last five games.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Denver Nuggets vs Toronto Raptors
Denver Nuggets:
The Nuggets failed to hold onto fifth place in the Western Conference, so they had to drop lower, though they are still managing to stay in the play-off zone. A number of injuries are having a strong impact on the overall picture, so the team has to rebuild every time.
The Denver Nuggets lost to the Golden State Warriors in their last meeting, although Michael Melone’s men were considered the underdogs before the game began. The Nuggets will try to rectify the situation in the next meeting, although the Toronto Raptors are hardly a weak opponent now, so we expect to see a real showdown at the Ball Arena.
In the game against the Warriors, Nikola Jokic scored 23 points, 12 rebounds and 9 assists.
Toronto Raptors:
The Raptors are trying to break into the play-off zone, as they are currently seventh in the Eastern Conference. The team took things seriously after a series of defeats, as they won two straight.
First, the Toronto Raptors defeated the San Antonio Spurs (119-104), then the Raptors beat the Phoenix Suns (117-112). You can only imagine the high spirits of Nick Nurse’s men now, with the top six not far behind. The game against the Nuggets is important, so we expect a decent performance from the visitors.
In the game against the Suns, Gary Trent Jr. scored 42 points, 8 rebounds and 1 assist.
