The current betting odds have the Nuggets listed as a 4.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Nuggets have looked really good in their games this season with their 33-19 record overall which has them right near the top of the West. They have been a great road team too with their 19-9 road record this year. Meanwhile, the Bulls haven't looked good in their games this season with their 24-28 record overall which has them in the bottom half of the East. They have looked good on their home court though with their 15-11 home record this season. The Bulls have looked a lot better in their home games this year, but they haven't looked that great lately. They are 4-6 in their last 10 games and they have lost 3 games in a row now. They have been getting blown out in these losses too, and they just made some moves at the trade deadline that has launched them back into rebuilding mode. The Bulls are going to look very different for the rest of the season as this is not a team looking to compete in the East right now. The Nuggets haven't looked any better lately as they are also 4-6 in their last 10 games and have lost 3 games in a row now, but the Nuggets also have a lot more talent and have been one of the best teams in the NBA all season. They just got Jokic back from injury too which has been a big boost and they have been playing against some of the best teams in the NBA lately. They are off a road loss to the Knicks in their last one in double OT, but they will be looking to bounce back in this one against an inferior opponent and get a much needed feel good win. The best way to place a bet here is on the Nuggets to cover the spread in this game.

"It's just so crazy to some of these names that some of these guys are tying right now. After a loss, even then, it hits me. Just knowing my father played against Oscar Robertson. It's just an incredible feat to tie somebody that, in my opinion, is one of the most underrated players of all time," - David Adelman on Nikola Jokic after his team’s loss against the Knicks in their game on Thursday.

“Yeah, I think the part about the OKC thing, even when I kind of came (to the Bulls) it was a rebuild in terms of we had a lot of young guys, there were some decisions that were going to be made.” - Billy Donovan on the team rebuilding.
