Before Betting on Nuggets vs. Lakers Game 3

Denver has a big edge before Saturday’s event, with them beating the Lakers in both appearances at the Mile High. Game 2 was pretty intense, with the Lakers having a double-digit lead at one moment, yet Mike Malone’s crew got away with a triumph.

It was all over for the Lakers as soon as Jamal Murray exploded. The Canadian guard scored 23 of his 37 buckets in the final period. He was unstoppable for the rivals. Nikola Jokic again had a triple-double, the fourth in a row, 23 points, 17 boards, and 12 assists. 

The Lakers fans lost their soul when LeBron injured his ankle. Luckily for the purple and gold, he is OK and will be ready to play Game 3. King James was one point short of a triple-double with 22 points, 10 assists, and nine boards. However, he missed all of his six three-point attempts. 

Anthony Davis scored only 18 points and was 4-for-15 from the field. He had 14 boards and wasn’t efficient as expected. Rui Hachimura and Austin Reaves have. The letter had 22 points and five threes sunk, while Hachimura scored 21, guarding Jokic solid.
