Denver Nuggets (3-2) and Portland Trail Blazers (4-1) will clash on Monday night at Ball Arena. The Nuggets have had a rough start to the season, sitting eighth in the West with a .600 win percentage. However, the Nuggets bounced back from their 20-point defeat against the Warriors to defeat the Pelicans and the Suns. They outscored the Suns 120-127 in the NBA Cup group game on Saturday with Jamal Murray and Christian Braun scoring 39 and 31 points, respectively. The Nuggets will want to make it three straight wins as the -180 favorites.
Portland Trail Blazers, meanwhile, are the +135 betting underdogs tonight as they look to continue their explosive start to the season. The Blazers saw their three-game winning run end abruptly when they lost 103-124 to the Grizzlies on Friday. However, they regrouped a night later to defeat Utah Jazz 90-112, with Deni Avdija scoring 24 points and five rebounds. Damian Lillard also chipped in with 22 points and five rebounds.

Our Denver Nuggets vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
Backing the Blazers is an exciting choice as they’ve lost just once in their last five matches with a similar record on the road. However, they haven’t looked sharp offensively in their last two matches. They must do more in attack to outscore the Nuggets, who are blessed with a wealth of attacking talent. Nikola Jokic was relatively quiet for the Nuggets against the Suns, although the superstar still contributed 18 points, 10 assists, and seven rebounds. Another reason why we think the Nuggets will win and cover the -3.5 spread is that the Blazers will be missing the services of Ja Morant. The reliable guard is out with a hamstring injury until December. The former Grizzlies star provides dynamic pace that helps fuel attack.
Our prediction for Denver Nuggets vs Portland Trail Blazers: Denver Nuggets to cover the -3.5 spread.
