Preview:
This is another case where I’m taking the contrarian angle, backing a Houston side laying 7.5 points here. The Rockets only have received 26% of the action thus far, but the line has already moved in their favour.
This again tells me that the sharps are all over this line, seeing value against a decimated Nuggets side. Denver are likely without 4 key rotation players here, with Murray, Harris, Millsap, and Plumlee all expected to miss.
While they’re a relatively deep side, this thins out their rotation and will make it much more difficult to contain Houston. They’ve struggled against elite offensive wings for years now and the Harris injury means it’ll be very tough to defend Harden.
This is also their 3rd game in 4 nights, making it extra difficult to cope with this plethora of injuries. Houston haven’t been great at home this season, but this is an ideal bounce-back spot after a disappointing loss to OKC.
Odds:
Tip: Houston Rockets at $1.23
