Free Betting Pick: Denver Nuggets -4.5
The favorite has covered the spread in 9 of their last 13 games between the Denver Nuggets and the San Antonio Spurs. Both of these teams will be coming into this game on the 2nd night of a back-to-back, but you have to give the advantage to the home team here. Denver is a hard place to play for opposing teams considering the altitude of the area, so it is a challenge for a team that is coming off another game the night before. I also like the depth of Denver as Monte Morris and Malik Beasley are contributing at a high-rate for the Nuggets, and they will be too much to handle when DeRozan and Aldridge are out of the game. Denver wins and covers, 119-110.
