San Antonio is #11 in the NBA in scoring, #7 in points allowed, and #6 in assists and #10 in rebounding. And they are getting healthy, winning three in a row. They just dominated Utah with a strangling defense in an 89-69 win. San Antonio's last two games have been marked by the return of Kawhi Leonard after last season's Finals MVP missed the previous 15 games due to a torn ligament in his right hand. Leonard scored 20 points in Friday's 110-96 win over Portland before contributing 12 and nine rebounds in Sunday's 89-69 rout of Utah. San Antonio is on a 4-1-1 ATS run including 3-0-1 ATS against the West. They are at Denver but the Nuggets are in the second of a back-to-back after getting crushed 122-79 at Golden State. Denver is just 2-5-1 ATS at home, plus 0-3-1 ATS when playing on no rest. The road team is 19-7 ATS when they meet and the Spurs are 22-8 ATS in the last 30 meetings in Denver. Lay the points on San Antonio.
