Here are the best bets of the model’s NBA to Nuggets vs. Lakers On Wednesday:
Nuggets (-2 in draftkings)
Nuggets have won two of the three meetings against the Lakers this season and five of the six regular season clashes in the last two years. Denver also defeated Los Angeles in five games in the first round of the playoffs of the West Conference last year, since Nuggets have dominated the Lakers in the last 24 months. Jokic did not play against the Warriors on Monday, but if he is active for Wednesday, the three -time NBA MVP award winner in the last four years could have another dominant effort, since he averages a triple double with 29.1 points, 12.8 rebounds and 10.3 assists per game this season. Meanwhile, the Lakers have 2-3 in their last five games without James. The Lakers opened as 1 point favorites in Sports boxesBut that quickly moved to nuggets that are favored on Wednesday morning and the line has continued to increase to -2 later in the day. Draftkings Sports Casillas It is offering nuggets to -2 to -110 probabilities.
Over 231.5
Two of the three games of the Nuggets vs. Lakers this season have resulted in the low blow and both clashes ended with less than 233 points scored. The Under has won in eight of the last 13 Denver games. None of the teams have 100% health and even if most stars in both teams are adjusted, that could lead to a slower rhythm game. None of the three Lakers games of the regular season against Nuggets in Los Angeles has not reached 233 points in the last two years. All this has the model that projects that the under reach in more than 60% of the simulations.
Luka Doncic less than 50.5 points + rebounds + assists (-118 in Fanduel)
Doncic has 21 points, nine rebounds and 14 assists against the Spurs on Monday to end below this total and has finished less than 50.5 p+r+a in three of its last five games. Doncic is likely while fighting an ankle injury, but that could delay it, since the Lakers may want to try to play at a slower pace given their bad results against Nuggets in the last two years. Doncic was also under this total in two previous clashes against Denver this season, once with the Lakers and once with Dallas. The 26 -year -old fired 25% from the field, including 1 of 7 in triples, against the Spurs on Monday and given his recent poor shooting, fighting an injury and lack of dominant actions against Denver, the model projects that Doncic ends under his P+R+by total. Some sports songs have already dropped P+R+a of Doncic at 49.5, but remains at 50.5 in Fanduel Sportsbook to -118 Odds.
