The Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Clippers meet Friday in NBA action at the crypto.com Arena. The Denver Nuggets have split their last 8 games. The Los Angeles Clippers have won 6 of their last 9 games.

The Denver Nuggets are averaging 113.9 points on 49.3 percent shooting and allowing 113.9 points on 48.9 percent shooting. Nikola Jokic is averaging 20.8 points and 9.5 rebounds, while Jamal Murray is averaging 16.5 points and 3.9 rebounds.

The Nuggets are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 1 days rest and 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall. The Clippers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 Friday games and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The under is 4-1 in Nuggets last 5 overall. The under is 17-6 in Clippers last 23 overall. The Nuggets are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Los Angeles.

It's hard to like the Los Angeles Clippers in any spot when they're without Leonard and PG13, which will be the case here. Not many teams compete well when their two best players are out.  The Denver Nuggets have found ways to win games here and there, and they're expected to have Jokic back for this one. The Nuggets should be favored, and they should be able to beat an undermanned Clippers side. I'll lay the chalk.
