Analysis
This is a play on the MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES for our NBA Friday Enforcer. Memphis is coming off a loss at Milwaukee to open a four-game roadtrip but it is in a good spot to get that one back. The Grizzlies have lost two of their last three games following an 11-game winning streak and they are now in third place in the Western Conference, a game ahead of Utah and just two and a half games behind Golden St. for second place. They are the fifth highest scoring team in the league and square off against the No. 22 team in scoring offense with both defenses being around equal check with each other. The Grizzlies are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 road games. Denver is coming off a huge come from behind win over the Clippers behind another big performance from Nikola Jokic with a silly 49-14-10 line. The Nuggets have been hit or miss this season as they are 23-20 on the season and while they are 14-8 at home, it is nothing special. The Nuggets are 2-6 ATS in their last eight games against teams with a winning percentage above .600. Here, we play against home teams playing with double revenge after two straight losses off a home no-cover where the team won straight up as a favorite. This situation 46-18 ATS (71.9 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (551) Memphis Grizzlies
