Thursday, Jan. 25 @ New York Knicks, Madison Square Garden, 5:30 p.m.
DEN -2, -126
NYK +2, +108
TOTAL 222.5
Not a confident line from the sportsbooks tonight as the Denver Nuggets finish their five game road trip, before coming home. The Knicks are having an excellent month as well, with ten wins in twelve games throughout January. The Nuggets match up well against the Knicks, with a much more dominant front court, but the back court of Jamal Murray and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope versus Jalen Brunson and Donte DiVincenzo is similar, with KCP being a better defender. This should be an excellent game as two of the best in their conference collide.
BET OF THE NIGHT: NIKOLA JOKIC OVER 11.5 REBOUNDS +104 FD
Nikola Jokic has been unstoppable as of late with clutch performances, and close out win performances. He has twelve or more rebounds in his last five games, twenty-five or more points in his last seven in a row, and New York does not have a center that can slow him down. Teams have been double teaming Jamal Murray and it is forcing Nikola Jokic to act more aggressively. Isaiah Hartenstein is questionable to play today, after missing the Knicks previous game. Nikola to earn his average at plus money seems like a wonderful prop to take advantage of.
Thanks for reading.
¡Vamos Los Nuggets!
