Denver - Sacramento (waiting for the line)
Denver will have Nene back for sure and Galo might give it a try as well. After all they have practiced and what better time to try them out than against a team on a b2b and coming off a bad loss to a worse team. Line might be a bit high for anybody's liking (I'd say around the 10,5 mark), but statistically Denver demolish the Kings...last home game even without Nene. Evans is terrible against Lawson and with Denver bench looking very solid lately they could cover up to 10 points. Will see what the bookies think, but in all cases we could buy a few points.
Raptors - Magic (Magic -6)
The Magic have been very solid from deep lately and I am leaning towards them covering the -6, considering Toronto are on b2b and were exceptionally flat last night. Even if Bargnani finally returns, it will be a huge question as to how ready is he to get into meaningful action after such long absence. I assume they will keep him out this game as well and give him the additional 3-4 days so he can be 100%. Will keep an eye for him, but with the improved play of Richardson this should be a tougher game for DeRozan than usual. The Under also looks probable with the lack of scoring options for Toronto.
