💰 Nuggets vs. Trail Blazers best bet
See all of our experts' NBA picks for today's slate.
The Denver Nuggets are positioned to win tonight against the Trail Blazers because of their offensive efficiency and depth. Denver thrives in half-court sets, where their ball movement and inside-out scoring create high-percentage looks. Their frontcourt advantage, led by Jokic, should control the glass and limit second-chance opportunities for Portland. The Nuggets are also one of the better road teams in the NBA, with a 20-10 record.
Defensively, the Nuggets can force tough perimeter shots and dictate the tempo. Expect Denver’s experience and late-game execution to seal the win comfortably.

💡 How I'm handicapping Nuggets vs. Trail Blazers
The Blazers are a team I am expecting to regress in the second half of the NBA season. They played above their talent for a good portion of the first half, but history shows that they will slow down in the second half. The Nuggets are also one of the best cover teams in the NBA, covering the seventh-most games with a record of 31-25.
As I alluded to earlier, the Nuggets are one of the better road teams in the NBA, and that is the spot they are in tonight. They have consistently handled business away from home, showing poise and discipline in hostile environments. Their ability to execute offensively and defend without fouling travels well, which gives them a clear edge in this matchup.
This play is a 1-unit play for me. I have a total of five plays on today’s slate, and this is my favorite of them all. This play will represent 20% of my daily action.
