Betting on the Memphis Grizzlies
- Season record: 19-10
- DraftKings Spread: -1.5
- DraftKings Moneyline: -120
- DraftKings Over/Under: 235.5
The Memphis Grizzlies lost their previous game against the Oklahoma City Thunder by a 115-109 score, which made them be one of last week’s surprises because of the difference in level that these teams have shown so far this season. With that, they cut short a favorable streak of seven consecutive victories. That loss is also the team’s first loss in the month of December.
Despite having suffered that loss, the Grizzlies arrive to this game as the best team in the Western Conference, a team with the most wins and the fewest losses. The same goes for its Division, where it is the second team with the second highest number of points scored with 3370.
Betting on Denver Nuggets
- Season record: 18-11
- DraftKings Spread: +1.5
- DraftKings Moneyline: +100
- DraftKings Over/Under: 235.5
The Denver Nuggets had put together their first positive streak of December with wins over the Trail Blazers, the Jazz and the Wizards, but they were unable to continue that successful path when they loss to the Los Angeles Lakers 126-108.
Neither that recent loss, nor the previous ones this month, can tarnish the good work that Denver has been doing, as it has managed to balance its lineup to be one of the best teams in the Western Conference. It is the team that has lost the fewest games in the Northwest Division, and thanks to that it leads that zone. Prior to this game, they won again against Charlotte Hornets by 119-115.
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams have been strong this season and are getting closer to their goal every week. This is their first clash against each other in this campaign, and it does not look like it will be an easy one, given the strength that both have shown. However, the Memphis Grizzlies have been slightly better so far and they are expected to pick up another win in this game.
Prediction: Memphis Grizzlies win by 3 points.
