Denver Nuggets: Aiming to Seize Control

The Denver Nuggets enter Game 3 with a 1-1 record in the series. They have shown strong performances at home but now face their first road challenge. The team will rely on their top players to perform well in this crucial game. Nikola Jokić leads the Nuggets with impressive stats, averaging 27.5 points and 11 assists in the postseason. Jamal Murray also contributes significantly with 22 points per game. The team will need both players to maintain their high level of play to succeed. The Nuggets face some uncertainty with Michael Porter Jr.’s shoulder injury. His status is questionable, which could affect the team’s strategy.

Final Betting Pick

The Nuggets getting +5.0 points is a solid pick. They have shown they can keep games close, even against strong teams like the Clippers. With a regular season away record of 24-17, the Nuggets have proven they can perform on the road. This makes taking the points a reasonable choice in this series.

The under 214.0 prediction is also supported by recent trends. Both teams have had low-scoring games in their first two postseason matchups. The combined scores have stayed under this line, suggesting another game with fewer points is likely. Both teams focus on defense, which further supports the under pick.
