Score prediction
Nuggets 117-114 Grizzlies. Denver has the better players at full strength, but Memphis has been better this season. We have the Nuggets by three.
Nuggets vs Grizzlies prediction
The Canadian books make Denver about a 61 per cent chance, close to what we would set ourselves.
Memphis is unbeaten on the road and has the better net rating, but its 2-3 home record and a thin frontcourt without Post and possibly Stewart are why we lean the other way, though only on the moneyline.
Our pick: the Nuggets to win. The spread is −3.5, just past our three-point margin, so we pass on it.
What would change it: if Jokic were held out, we would switch to Memphis.
