Denver Nuggets vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
One of the games of the night on Saturday’s NBA slate sees a Western Conference clash between the second-place Denver Nuggets and the third-place Oklahoma City Thunder. The Nuggets come into this matchup with a 17-9 record following their most recent 124-101 home win over the Nets. It was the third victory in a row for the defending champions who now trail the first-place Timberwolves by 2.5 games. It was also the second straight impressive defensive performance by Denver who held Brooklyn and Chicago to an average 103.5 points on 41.4% shooting. The Nuggets boosted their record at Ball Arena to 10-1 with their only defeat coming at the hands of the Houston Rockets last week. Denver are somewhat banged up at the moment with three of their starting five listed on the injury report. KCP will miss out although Murray and Gordon both played vs the Nets and should take part in this one.
The Thunder have been one of the most impressive teams in the NBA this season. Many expected this young OKC team to improve following their 10th-place finish last season, but few would have predicted they would have taken such a gigantic leap forward. OKC are 15-8 on the year which puts them a half game behind their opponents today and three games behind the conference leaders. Their performance is no fluke either as OKC’s ranks fifth in adjusted net rating at +4.3. The Thunder are coming off a 128-123 away defeat to the Kings, snapping a two-game winning streak. The visitors have also been one of the league’s toughest outs when playing on the road in large part due to their lockdown defense which is allowing a second-best 109.9 opponent points per game on the road.
