Nuggets vs. Lakers: NBA Best Bets, Picks & Predictions (Monday)

Don’t look now, but here come the Lake Show.

As of tonight, the Lakers have won five straight games and six of their past seven, all of which they’ve won as underdogs. As you’d expect, LeBron James has led the way, as this team is starting to rally behind him to make a push toward the postseason following a lost 2022 campaign.

The problem tonight, however, as they head north to the altitude of Denver for their third game in four nights, taking on a much healthier Nuggets team on two full days of rest. Having won (and covered) four of five in their own right, look for the Lakers to fold late tonight as the Nugs cover with ease.

Nuggets -9 (-110)
