Denver Nuggets (36-22) and Boston Celtics (38-19) will step onto the hardwood on Wednesday night at the Ball Arena. The Nuggets have been uninspiring lately, losing six of their last 10 assignments. They’ll be attempting to recover from their 128-117 defeat against the Warriors on the road last weekend, despite Jokic contributing 35 points, 20 rebounds, and 12 assists. The game against Boston could mark a turning point for David Adelman’s men.

Boston Celtics, on the other side of the court, have been in red-hot form lately, losing just once in their last 10 assignments. The 2024 champions produced yet another defensive masterclass on Tuesday night to defeat the Suns 81-97 at the PHX Arena. They took control in the third quarter, outscoring Phoenix 30-11, including an outstanding 16-0 run. Their impressive form leaves them just 4.5 games behind the Pistons at the top of the Eastern Conference.

Our Denver Nuggets vs Boston Celtics Prediction

Denver Nuggets are the -175 betting favorites. They’ll be banking on Jokic to outplay Boston and end their recent poor run of results. As usual, the Nuggets’ attack has been fluid, averaging 126.38 PPG in the last eight matches. They also boast the best attack in the league this season, averaging 120.8 PPG. However, Boston has the second-best defense in the league, averaging 108.0 PAPG this season. Impressively, the Celtics have an average of 95.7 opponent points over the last 10 games. They’re also the in-form side, winning six of their last seven away games, and are 4-1 against the Nuggets in the previous five meetings. All things considered, we expect Joe Mazzulla’s men to limit Denver’s chances with the total points going under 231.
