Nuggets vs. Knicks Prediction & Pick
Denver remians one of the toughest places to play in the NBA. Of course you have a talented te am and a loud fanbase, but the high altitude that comes along with playing in the Mile High City always makes things difficult for the road team. Sure, Denver will be without their best player in Jokic, but the Knicks are also on the second game of a back-to-back.

Nuggets vs. Knicks Best Bet
Despite this number dropping throughout the day, I think it's gone down enugh to like the over in this one. The two teams combine to average 232 points per game. Jokic's lack of presence down low should give the Knicks more easy opporunities in the paint and second-chance points. However, the Knicks coming off a game on Wednesday night, it wou ld be understandable if they were a bit sluggish on the defensive end.
