Our Denver Nuggets vs Phoenix Suns Prediction
While the Nuggets are clearly the form side in this contest, there are concerns over the availability of Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon, both of whom are listed as questionable at the time of writing.
Still, even if the Nuggets’ duo is unable to play, you get the feeling that they are well-equipped to handle their absence, and we feel they should be able to get the cover against a Suns side with the second-worst cover percentage in the NBA this season. Our Denver Nuggets vs Phoenix Suns prediction is Denver Nuggets -7.5.
