Premium Pick

For the first time in about 2 decades, the San Antonio Spurs have some internal issues, and it involves their best player Kawhi Leonard, who after being cleared to play, decided he might want to sit out the rest of the season. The Spurs have played without him all year and have had success, at 35-24. Coach Pop will make things work, but winning a Championship without Leonard is very unlikely. Denver has allowed 100 points or more in 9 straight games, and that is a tough place to be gainst San Antonio who should be energized with the return of LaMarcus Aldridge, while the Nuggets have to go at it without Paul Milsap. Spurs playing with revenge, where they tend to kick it up a notch. Make the play on San Antonio.
