San Antonio Spurs at Denver Nuggets – Saturday at 9:00 p.m. ET
The Spurs (48-30, 42-35-1 ATS) lost 112-101 in Phoenix heading into their Saturday night match up with the Memphis Grizzlies. The loss to Phoenix snapped San Antonio's four-game winning streak. The Spurs have been great to sports betting fans over the past few weeks; they've ripped off seven wins in their past 10 games against the spread. Hitting the road shouldn't faze San Antonio too much, either—the team is 6-4 against the spread in its last 10 road games.
Denver (52-27, 34-39-6 ATS) has won four straight games. The Nuggets are coming off an impressive 98-96 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers; Denver is now flirting with second-place overall in the Western Conference standings. Despite the impressive run lately, the Nuggets have been rather uninspiring at the sportsbook; they're just 3-6-1 in their past 10 games on NBA odds. Denver has been only slightly better at home, going 4-6 in its last 10 home games against the spread.
Though the Spurs are looking healthy, it's probably never a great idea to take them on back-to-back nights given their age—especially on the road.
Pick: Denver
