Free Betting Pick: Denver Nuggets +8
The Denver Nuggets have gone 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 road games against the Golden State Warriors. The Golden State Warriors have one of the best home court advantages in the NBA, but they have not been great in betting terms as they are 14-23 ATS. The Denver Nuggets only sit 1 game behind the Warriors for 1st place in the Western Conference, so you can expect this team to bring their A game. Nikola Jokic is easily the best center in the NBA, and I expect him to have a solid game inside against Cousins. Golden State wins but fails to cover, 119-114.
