Denver had a 22-point lead at Brooklyn on Sunday, but had to put the starters back in after the Nets cut it to seven. The Nuggets eventually pulled to a 108-102 win and cover. Nikola Jokic had yet another triple-double with 22 points, 17 rebounds and 10 assists, and Michael Porter, Jr. led all scorers with 28 points. Look for the Nuggets to stay focused the entire game against Washington, which has lost eight of 10 with a 2-8 ATS mark following a 122-112 loss to lowly Orlando on Tuesday night, even while shooting better than 50 percent. The Nuggets won the only meeting this season, 141-128 on Dec. 14 when Jokic scored 43 points and Denver shot an incredible 65 percent, but made only four 3-pointers. The Wizards have not covered their past four games against teams with .600 winning percentages. Lay the points with the Nuggets.
