Our Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
The Suns have the firepower to blow away any team when they’re fit, but what is becoming increasingly clear is that they do lack depth as we saw on Tuesday when only two of their players got into double digits.
The Nuggets are getting better with each match and looked very good when they beat this opponent last time out. It’s always tough to win in succession against the same team, but we feel the visitors have it in them. Our Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets prediction is Denver Nuggets win.
If your team in the Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
If you want to place a bet on the moneyline in the Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets game, then bet365 is the place to do it. If the team that you have bet on takes a 20-point lead in the game, then bet365 will pay your bet out as a winner. If your team goes on to lose, you are still a winner.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
