Jokic and his Denver Nuggets are at home, where they face the banged-up Knicks, who are still holding on well considering Julius Randle’s absence.
Before Betting on Knicks vs. Nuggets
The Knicks are without their best player, Julius Randle, due to his shoulder injury, but even without the strong power forward, this team is doing well and is holding on to the fourth spot in the Eastern Conference. They currently have four wins in a row, three on the road, against the Trail Blazers, the Kings, and the Warriors in their most recent appearance.
That one ended 119-112 for the Knicks, who aren’t known for some high-octane defense. However, Jalen Bruson’s 34 points and Miles McBride’s 29 buckets were enough to take down the Dub Nation in their own house. Josh Hart had a triple-double, 10 points with 11 boards and assists each.
Denver is 4-1 in the past five games and comes back home following a challenging four-game road trip on which they defeated the Heat, Spurs, and T-Wolves and lost to the Mavs due to Kyrie’s crazy left-hand buzzer-beater. That match was prior to the one in Minnesota, where they won in pretty much the same way.
Jokic had 35 points in this one, with 16 boards, dominating the court as he usually does. Michael Porter Jr. scored 26 and was very important in the final quarter, while Jamal Murray added another double-double to his tally, having 18 buckets and 11 assists. Aaron Gordon also had double-digit figures in two columns, 14 points, and 11 boards.

The Knicks are coming to Mile High tired, with their players already feeling fatigued, and playing one mile above sea level won’t favor them, that’s for sure. On the other hand, the Nuggets are back home, where they perform strong and relentlessly, so we don’t believe in anything else but their victory.
