Nuggets vs. Spurs Betting Preview (January 29th, 2021)

The Nuggets are on fire and they are looking to close out a five-game road trip with a perfect record. Bettors in states such as Colorado can get in on the action.

Let’s take a look at some of our best bets in our Nuggets vs. Spurs betting preview, including odds, picks, and predictions.

Nuggets vs. Spurs Betting Preview

The Nuggets and Spurs are both off to great starts this year. Denver stumbled out of the gate early, but they have rebounded nicely due to the MVP-type play of Nikola Jokic. The Nuggets have won five in a row and they are looking for their ninth win in 11 games.

The Spurs, on the other hand, are quietly having a bounce-back season after missing the playoffs last year. It was the first time San Antonio was on the outside looking in since Moses wore short pants. San Antonio is enjoying a nice long homestand, but the Nuggets are going to try and disrupt their fun.

Bets We Like Regardless Of Outcome

Dejounte Murray Over 7.5 Rebounds (+103)

Win, lose, or draw, Dejounte Murray always seems to go over this number when the Spurs are at home. He’s hauled in at least eight rebounds in four of San Antonio’s last five games at home. Although Murray is a guard, he’s a big-time rebounder who can grab the ball and start the break by himself.

Sure, Nuggets fans might not want to bet on the over for a Spurs player prop, but the odds are pretty juicy on this one. With how good Murray has been on the boards in San Antonio and the number sitting at +103, this is a good bet no matter what the final score is.

Bets We Like With A Nuggets Win

Nuggets -4.5 (-106)

The Nuggets are covering roughly 62% of the time when they are the favorite in a game this year. What does that mean for bettors? Well, if you are confident in the Nuggets beating the Spurs on the road, you should also be confident that they can cover the 4.5-point spread.

Denver is absolutely rolling right now and even though they aren’t demolishing every single opponent they face, it feels like they are starting to find their rhythm. San Antonio could be in for a long night.

Bets We Like With A Spurs Win

Spurs Moneyline (+155)

There is no need to try and reinvent the wheel with this one. If you feel like the Spurs are going to win, take the value on the moneyline. There is plenty of upside on that number and even though the Nuggets are on fire lately, there is always some value in taking the home underdog.

The Spurs are no slouch this year and they should be able to give Denver a good fight on Friday night.

Nuggets vs. Spurs Prediction

Like we said earlier, these are two of the better teams in the Western Conference right now, but the Nuggets are an absolute wrecking crew. Jokic has been tremendous all season long and his supporting cast is starting to put it all together.

Look for Denver to cap off their five-game road trip with another win as they continue their climb up the standings.

The Pick: Take the Nuggets laying the points.
