Denver are 5-0 SU in their last 5 games against Miami.

The total has gone UNDER in 8 of Miami's last 11 games.

Miami are 7-3 SU in their last 10 games.

The total has gone OVER in 5 of Miami's last 6 games against Denver.

 

Prediction

The Nuggets have managed to win 5 of their last 7 games even without 2 of their best players in Murray and Gordon but Aaron Gordon has a chance to return for this game who has been on fire lately. Miami has won 3 games in a row and are ranking #2 in defense in the league but they have struggled against the Nuggets losing 8 of the last 10 head to head games. If Gordon is ready to go I'll definitely take the Nuggets.
