Under 229.5 Total Points (-110)
Jamal Murray is most likely not playing here and that could be a big blow to the offensive production of the Nuggets. However, I am sure the Lakers too will have a tough time scoring the basketball. Denver is elite on defense, they've ranked in the top 10 in defensive rating for most of the season and have now elevated themselves to 6th over the last 10 games or so.
