One of the most entertaining games to be played this Tuesday in the NBA will be the Nuggets vs Raptors. The home team will want to take advantage of its home advantage to return to winning ways, but to do so it will have to overcome one of the most complicated teams in the league.
These teams have met only once so far this season, in a game that went to Denver 113-118 at home. Will they be able to repeat this performance in away games?

Predictions, Odds, and Betting Preview for the Denver Nuggets vs Toronto Raptors NBA Regular Season Game on March 14, 2023
- Where: Scotiabank Arena, Toronto, Canada
- When: Tuesday, March 14, 2023, 07:30 PM E.T.
Betting on the Denver Nuggets
- Regular Season Record: 46-21
The Denver Nuggets were in action on Sunday when they faced the Brooklyn Nets at home. They played after a very poor performance against the San Antonio Spurs and the Chicago Bulls, teams that managed to overcome them surprisingly.
The leaders of the Western Conference will try to show why they occupy this position by trying to put in positive numbers on the road, a condition in which they have won 16 of the 32 games they have played.
In order to do so, they will have to show a good version in the offensive department, one of the departments that is giving the best performance this campaign, ranking as the seventh team with the best records (116.9 points on average).
Betting on the Toronto Raptors
- Regular Season Record: 32-36
The Toronto Raptors hope that these four days of rest from competition will help them reset the chip with which they registered three losses in a row. The most recent of these was against the Los Angeles Lakers in California, a game in which they were ahead on the scoreboard, but they ended up being beaten after a terrible defensive performance.
That was strange because we are talking about a team that has excelled defensively, and, with an average of 112.2 points allowed per game, they are the seventh-best team.
In addition, despite being ranked ninth in the Eastern Conference, they have a great performance at home, as they won 20 of 33 games.
JefeBet Prediction
It’s not like Denver was losing important games that its poor recent performance could be justified. However, this is expected to be a small blip in the competition. After all, the Nuggets are the leaders of their conference and their closest rival is 5.5 games behind them, which is an abysmal disparity with which they can afford to lower their momentum a little.
Therefore, after the poor results, the Nuggets are expected to be able to show the difference in quality on the court against an opponent they beat in their last trip to Canada for this Nuggets vs Raptors matchup.
Prediction: Denver Nuggets Moneyline (DEN 115 – 109 TOR)
