1 unit on Denver -9 (-110) (risk 1 to return 1.91)
Result:
LOSS

Sacramento doesn't play any defense, last in the NBA in points allowed (109.1 points per game), #24 in field goal shooting defense and #23 at defending the three-pointer. That defense let them down last night, allowing 112 points and 51.2% shooting at home in a loss to Miami. The Heat hit 12-of-22 threes (54.5%). It doesn't help that DeMarcus Cousins (27 ppg, 11.6 rpg) is out, suspended by the league. They face a rested Denver team delighted to be home after playing nine of the last 11 away. It was a decent trip at 3-3 the last six games, getting wins at the Lakers and Grizzlies, the latter as a +3 point dog. Denver is 20-9 ATS when playing on one day of rest, plus 15-7 ATS following a straight-up loss. This is a great situational spot for the Nuggets, who are 19-8-1 ATS when their opponent scores 100 points or more in their previous game. Play Denver.
