Feb 27 Matchup: Denver Hosts Tough Opponent

Denver enters this matchup on a rough three-game losing streak, grappling with inconsistent scoring and defensive breakdowns. Meanwhile, their opponent is riding a four-game win streak and appears to be heating up at the right time. Denver is also dealing with a key injury to their starting center, weakening their rebounding and interior defense—an area their opponent excels in. Historically, Denver has struggled against this team, with their star forward averaging well below his season scoring average in past matchups. With the visitors surging at the perfect moment and Denver struggling inside, taking the favorite at -350 is the best call here. Though the payout is low, the likelihood of victory makes this a strong pick.
