Our Denver Nuggets vs Houston Rockets Prediction

Denver is the moderate favorite in this game; however, Houston looks to be the best betting option. The Rockets may have the slight disadvantage, having just played on Tuesday, but are still in better form compared to the Nuggets. Houston is 6-4 in their last 10 games and 18-16 on the road, while Denver is 4-6 in their last 10 and 17-13 at home.

Additionally, the Nuggets have lost their last two games in a row. These teams have also met three times this season, and while Denver has won two of the three games, both of their wins were by less than five points. 

Houston’s recent play has also improved their placement in the Western Conference standings; therefore, our Denver Nuggets vs Houston Rockets prediction is: Houston Rockets +5.5.

Prediction:

 

Houston Rockets +5.5
