Chicago Bulls vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
The Nuggets are coming off a big upset win over the Rockets and that’s a confidence booster for sure. It’s also well-documented that the Nuggets are one of the tougher home teams in the league. However, the Nuggets are on the end of a back-to-back and are still down their best player in Jokic. The Bulls not only have the rest advantage, but they’ve won seven of their last nine games and have covered eight of their last nine games. The Bulls have outright won five of their last seven games as an underdog. Even with last night's win, the Nuggets are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games. Oddsmakers keep disrespecting this Bulls run and we keep cashing. Give me the Bulls and the points.
