Clippers vs Nuggets Prediction, Picks & Player Props (2/26)

The Los Angeles Clippers travel to the Mile High City to take on Nikola Jokic and the #1 Seed Denver Nuggets.

The Clippers played possibly the game of the year 2 nights ago, in a double overtime thriller against the Kings.

GAME OF THE YEAR CONTENDER.

It was the 2nd most points scored in NBA history with a whopping 351 points but all the Clippers have to show for it is a loss.

For the Nuggets, they are fresh off of a dismantling in Memphis, losing to the Grizzlies 112-94.

Prediction

The Number #1 Seed Nuggets dropped a game in unusual fashion last night, losing by 18 points to the Grizzlies.

The Nuggets never really got going and will have to flush it quickly tonight against a tough Clippers squad.

The Clippers were on the losing end of the game of the year and one of the best games in NBA history 2 nights ago against the Kings and will similarly have to bounce back tonight.

The Clippers are currently 5th in the West but only 2 games separate them and the 9th place Jazz.

Stacking wins is important at this time of year but what's more important than that is preventing losing streaks.

It should be a playoff atmosphere in Ball Arena tonight and I expect the Nuggets to come out and get back to winning at home against the Clips.

While the Back-to-back aspect of this game for the Nuggets can't be ignored, the Clippers played 2 overtimes 2 nights ago.

With both teams in need to get back on track, give me the Nuggets and the MVP Jokic to bag the win at home.

Player Prop of the Game

Russell Westbrook o7.5 Assists (+100) BetOnline

Let's cap this off with the newest member of the Clippers, Russell Westbrook.

Westbrook fit right in in his first game against the Kings, racking up 14 assists and scoring 17 points.

He has 8+ assists in 5 of his last 6 games, albeit 5 of those were with the Lakers.

He seems to be a big part of the Clippers plans, though, and after putting up 14 assists in his first game, I will happily take 8+ for plus money.

A nice bonus is 10+ as well on BetOnline. He has 10+ in 3 of his last 6.

Bonus: Westbrook 10+ assists (+280) BetOnline
