Free Denver Nuggets vs. Indiana Pacers NBA Prediction:
Thursday, January 2nd, the Denver Nuggets face the Indiana Pacers in the clubs first meeting of the season.
Last season, the teams played twice splitting the contests each winning on their home court. In a rarity, the teams have played 90 times and each won 45.
Denver Nuggets
The Nuggets were on a roll having won nine of their last 10 games prior to the 130-104 loss to the Rockets. Since Denver was playing so well this could be written off as just an off night.

Six Nuggets scored in double-figures in the loss to the Rockets. The leading scorer was Nikola Jokic with 21 points. He was joined by Monte Morris, Paul Millsap (13), Jamal Murray (12), Malik Beasley (10) and Will Barton (10).
Despite the balanced scoring, the Nuggets fell behind by 17 points at the half, made a charge to cut it to three entering the final frame and seemingly imploded allowing the Rockets to best them 38-15 in the fourth quarter.
In terms of individual team leaders, Nikola Jokic leads the four main categories with 18.1 points 6.7 assists, 9.9 rebounds, and 50.1 percent field goal percentage.
The hustle categories are led by Gary Harris for steals (1.4) and Paul Millsap for blocks (0.8).
Gary Harris missed the last two games with a left shin contusion making him questionable for Thursday. Bol Bol (foot) is out indefinitely.
Indiana Pacers
After winning five consecutive games the Pacers have delivered some uneven efforts. They lost badly to the Bucks then required overtime to get past a severely undermanned Raptors squad.
Two road losses followed to the Heat and Pelicans which was followed by a sound beating of the 76ers (115-87) on New Year’s Eve.
The common denominator is the Pacers have a tough time winning against top teams when they are on the road.
In the win over the 76ers, seven players reached double-figure scoring. Domantas Sabonis (23 points, 10 rebounds) and T.J. McConnell (11 points, 10 assists) each registered double-doubles.
TJ Warren (21), Myles Turner (14), Jeremy Lamb (13), Doug McDermott (12) and Justin Holiday (10) were the other double-digit contributors.
On the season TJ Warren leads the team in scoring (17.8), Malcolm Brogdon for assists (7.4), Justin Holiday for steals (1.1) and Myles Turner leads for blocks (2.1).
Sabonis tops the ladder for rebounding (13.2) and field goal percent (50.8).
Malcolm Brogdon left the last game with back spasms while Edmond Sumner is out with knee soreness and neither is expected to play on Thursday.
Naz Mitrou-Long is out indefinitely with a right ankle sprain. Victor Oladipo continues the rehab for the ruptured quadriceps tendon with the team citing late January as a potential return date.
NBA Betting Trends:
- The Nuggets are 7-3 ATS in their last 10
- The Nuggets are 5-4-1 in last 10 head to head
