1.87Tip and bets
Bookmaker experts consider Denver to be the undisputed favorite of the upcoming match. In their opinion, only a miracle can help New Orleans succeed. That's the way it is. The Pelicans, even with a full-fledged squad, cannot set high goals for themselves, and in the absence of injured leaders, they have to play the role of an outsider. Malone's team will have to achieve a convincing victory over a bloodless opponent.
Our forecast is that Denver will win with a head start (-10.5) points including overtime for 1.73
Betting on an individual total
Denver is showing decent performance this season. The average number of points scored in the last ten games is 121. In matches with the Pelicans— it is 112. And this time, it's looking like the Nuggets will be able to improve their stats.
Our forecast is that Denver's individual total is more than 127.5 points, including overtime in 2.08
The bet on the player
Jokic played 79 games in the last regular season and averaged 26.4 points per game. This season, his score is already noticeably higher — 29.6.
