Oklahoma City Thunder vs Denver Nuggets Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Carlos Zabala | in NBA Picks

Oklahoma Thunder, after the last excellent season where they led their conference, and after a spectacular start to the season where they have a record of 7-0, were positioned in several betting sites as the second favorite and main contender to snatch the title from the current champions with odds of up to 5.51 to be the new champions.

The Thunder's defensive efficiency is very high, having managed to keep their rivals below 100 points in 5 of the first 7 games. In the debut, the Thunder faced the Nuggets at the Ball Arena and beat them by a score of 102-87.

For the Thunder, this season, it is all about teamwork. While they lead the NBA in such a critical issue as steals per game with an impressive 13.1, and are also 6th in forcing turnovers, this team does not depend on one star and there are 10 players who average 13 or more minutes per game, while none ever exceeded 32 minutes on the court.

The Nuggets recovered from having lost in the first two games of the season and now have a record of 4-3. However, they will probably have to face the difficult date on Wednesday again without their star Jamal Murray, who missed the last two games with a concussion. Add to that the loss of Aaron Gordon on Monday and will be out for several weeks.

Oklahoma City Thunder - Denver Nuggets Key Points

  1. The Nuggets are 3rd in the NBA in offensive rebounds with 14.4
  2. The Thunder finished last season with a 12-4 record against divisional opponents.
  3. Jokic averages triple-double with Nuggets in first 7 games
  4. Thunder led Magic in first 3 quarters of last game and didn't allow them to score 30 or more in last win.

Our Oklahoma City Thunder vs Denver Nuggets Prediction

Despite the exceptional start, the Thunder players seem focused on not letting that get to them and keep winning, Holmgren said they have no guaranteed wins and Gilgeous-Alexander said they are still not close to achieving what they want to achieve this season. So it will be a rematch of the first game of the season that Thunder took by a score of 102-87 at Ball Arena. Only this time the home team will have two important losses that they didn't have that night. Our prediction for Thunder vs Nuggets is: Thunder -6, -135 at DraftKings.
