Nuggets control Heat in Game 1
Nikola Jokic had a triple-double as the Nuggets cruised into a 1-0 lead in the NBA Finals with a 104-93 home win over the Heat last night. The Nuggets comfortably covered the spread while the game stayed under by a distance. The Nuggets are now -800 odds with FanDuel Sportsbook to win the championship with FanDuel Sportsbook, which has Miami at +550. The Heat are 9-point underdogs for Sunday’s Game 2.
