Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Stephen Abiola | in NBA Picks

On Thursday, April 25, Denver Nuggets will play LA Lakers in Game 3 of their playoff series at Crypto.com Arena. The Lakers will try to use their home-court advantage to stop the two-game skid in this best-of-seven series. In the first game, Denver overpowered LA to win 114-103. But the second game was a close contest after Denver edged out the Lakers 101-99. The Lakers took an early 20-point third-quarter lead at Ball Arena but failed to maintain the momentum after MVP finalist Nikola Jokic led a second-half comeback for Denver. In this tight game, the Lakers’ big man Anthony Davis scored 32 points with 24 in the first half. ESPN stats gave the Lakers a massive 95% probability of winning this game after scoring several points in the third quarter. It will be another close and entertaining contest on Thursday.

Our Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction

It’s easy to see why the Nuggets are the slight 1-point favorites heading into Game 3 of the playoffs. They boast enough game-changing talent, led by two-time MVP Nikola Jokic, who ensured Game 2 didn’t end in a tie with just a minute remaining. However, as the Lakers continue to find strategies to neutralize Jokic, the Nuggets must now deal with the threat from LeBron James and Anthony Davis on the road. The dynamic duo will undoubtedly take the fight to Denver in Hollywood to prevent an early postseason tournament exit. Our prediction for LA Lakers vs Denver Nuggets: A win for the Lakers!

Prediction:

A win for the Lakers!
