Result:
WIN

Denver has won three in a row and seven of nine. Center Nikola Jokic leads the way, off a win over the Knicks where he had 19 points, 15 assists, 14 rebounds. Power forward Paul Millsap had 16 points and nine boards in his second contest since missing three weeks with a broken toe. Denver's defense is outstanding, third in the NBA in points allowed. They've outscored opponents by +5.3 this season, good for sixth best in the league. The Nuggets are 9-4 ATS when following a straight-up win and face a young Sacramento squad that plays no defense, #28 in points allowed, #27 in field goal shooting defense. The offense is also terrible from the charity stripe (.709), ranking #27. Sacramento is on a 3-5 SU, 2-6 ATS skid. Denver has covered six of the last seven meetings, including 126-112 when they met earlier this season, and the Nuggets are 9-4 ATS in this building. Play Denver.
