Tonight’s nine-game slate of NBA Cup Group Stage action features several great matchups, including a doubleheader on Prime Video. The latter of those two games features Kevin Durant & the Houston Rockets hosting Nikola Jokic & the Denver Nuggets. With such a can’t-miss clash on deck, we’ve got our best Nuggets vs. Rockets predictions for tonight.

With such a star-studded matchup ahead of us, we’ll also be sharing how to capitalize on your Nuggets vs. Rockets picks with a guaranteed 10x Novig Sportsbook promo code bonus! 

Nuggets vs. Rockets Predictions for NBA Cup on Prime, 11/21

Not only is this an NBA Cup Group Stage game, but it’s also a potential Western Conference Finals preview, and a rather likely one at that. Of course, the Oklahoma City Thunder will have something to say about that, but at 11-3 and 10-3, respectively, Denver and Houston are on a collision course.

That’s what makes Nuggets vs. Rockets predictions for tonight even more exciting, especially when we have the aforementioned superstars taking the court. Houston hasn’t lost since their NBA Cup Group Stage game two Fridays ago, whereas Denver just had to start a new win streak after losing to the Chicago Bulls two games ago.

No matter how you slice it, we expect this to be the game of the night. With that in mind, we actually expected to dig deep for a unique market, but as it turns out, the best bet from our Nuggets vs. Rockets predictions is as simple as it gets!

 

 

 

Nuggets vs. Rockets Best Bet: Denver +2.5 Points (-109 at Novig)

Truthfully, we’ve been impressed watching Alperen Sengun continue to improve and have even taken some Kevin Durant props this season already. However, speaking of KD, could he perhaps be looking ahead to Houston’s next game? They go TO Phoenix to take on his former Suns squad.

Ok, we’re not going to make that the basis of our Nuggets vs. Rockets predictions, but we still trust Nikola Jokic to kickstart Denver’s new winning streak. Houston’s new-look roster has been impressive no doubt, but the pedigree of the Nuggets is too established to ignore. Even without the past, since Halloween, they’ve lost just one game.

What’s more impressive is that this month alone, Nikola Jokic has had a triple-double in five games, including each of the past three! They even put up 125 points on Wednesday night without Aaron Gordon, who is expected to be back on the court tonight. With that point total in mind, you could also consider taking the over.

Houston has the NBA’s best record for such picks at 10-3. Add to the mix or just stick with the best bet from our Nuggets vs. Rockets predictions on Denver +2.5 points (-109 at Novig).
