Pelicans vs. Nuggets Odds & Betting Predictions - February 6, 2025

Zion just had his first sub 20 game vs Jokic in years and now gets to redeem himself on a b2b vs Jokic. You’d think after scoring 14 they’d lower his line right? Nah they raised it cuz tonight he scores 27+

I’m really running back this play from last game but triple double is priced out. The Nuggets will not have Russell Westbrook for tonight’s contest against the Pelicans who have been destroyed on the interior by bigs. While Jokic should be about to contribute across the board with ease, he sees a spike in his assists without Westbrook. Jokic jumps from 12.7 assists per 100 to 14.3 without Westbrook. Considering the Pelicans have the third-worst Defense in the league, the Nuggets should have little difficulty scoring. In this same matchup from last game, Jokic recorded 10 dimes but that actually was low. He had 24 potentials and ran a little bad there. He should see some positive regression with the dimes.

Mccollum has cleared this line in 6 of his last 10 and 2/2 against the Nuggets this season. Denver ranks bottom 3 in the league against opposing SGs and with Dejounte Murray sidelined for the season, Mccollum should handle the bulk of the work on the perimeter. He attempted 23 FGA against them last game and should see similar volume today. Some recent SG performances vs the Nuggets: Mccollum (30), Anthony Edwards (34), Jalen Green (34)
