Premium Pick

Los Angeles has Reggie Jackson and Marcus Morris, Sr. in protocol, and Paul George (elbow) is out until January while Denver players have mostly escaped the COVID list. The Clippers had lost three in a row before defeating Sacramento, 105-89, on Wednesday when the Kings shot just 40%. The Clippers have averaged only 100.8 points their last four games and needed a good defensive effort to beat Sacramento. The Nuggets have won and covered five of the last six meetings, and this will be the first one this season. Denver is also 5-1 ATS their last six after a loss. The Clippers are 1-7 ATS following an ATS win and 1-4 ATS after winning by at least 10 points. Also, Los Angeles has covered just two of its last nine home games, and it is 3-8 ATS versus teams with losing records. Take the Nuggets for a Max Play.
