Denver at Sacramento

The Nuggets are far from the team that lost three home games just two years ago, but since starting the season at 1-6, this has actually been a team that has played better than .500 basketball the rest of the way, and they come to Sacramento on a three-game winning streak. The Kings are an improved team over a year ago, but their early success has been met with a quick reminder of just how far this team has to go to compete in the rugged Western Conference. The Kings are just 6-15 over their last 21 games, and this young squad has lost its confidence, and have played well under the line at 3-14-1 ATS in their last 18 games. The Nuggets have a strong history here as they are 6-1 ATS in their last seven, and these teams are heading in opposite directions. Play the points on Denver.
