Charlotte at Denver

Both teams are playing on consecutive nights and injury-riddled Denver was fortunate to defeat lowly Washington 121-115 while not coming close to covering an 11-point spread. Now the Nuggets have to play a back-to-back with a depleted lineup against Charlotte, which boasts five double-figure scorers led by Lamelo Ball, who averages 20.2 points. The Hornets are #5 in the NBA in 3-point shooting percentage and they are 6-0 ATS following an ATS loss, 8-1 ATS after any loss. Charlotte has covered seven of its past eight games playing on no rest and it apparently didn't expend much energy while being routed 136-116 by Golden State last night. The Hornets are 6-1 ATS after a loss by at least 10 points. The Nuggets are 1-4 ATS their past five home games versus teams with less than .400 road winning percentages. Take the Hornets.
