Dallas Mavericks vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
We know Luka Doncic is out for the Mavs, but Nikola Jokic is questionable for the Nuggets. Jokic wasn’t at practice on Thursday due to personal reasons. Of course, you should check the injury report before locking in anything. Assuming the Nuggets won’t have Jokic, I have to lean toward the Mavs and the points. Yes, the Nuggets beat the Grizzlies without Jokic, but Memphis had an injury report longer than a CVS receipt. The Mavericks still have guys who can lead the way to a victory. Jokic is so important to the Nuggets. Again, get an update on Jokic before betting.
