*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Tuesday, January 30th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Wednesday, January 31st.
Denver Nuggets
Although the Nuggets have looked road-weary after returning from a five-game opposite-coast stint they’ve managed to eke out two consecutive victories.
On Monday, Nikola Jokic had an uncharacteristically off-shooting night but still managed to deliver a triple-double (25 points, 16 rebounds, 12 assists plus three steals and two blocks) while Jamal Murray overcame physical defense to lead the Nuggets with 35 points.
Nuggets Stats
Denver ranks seventh offensively (118.1) and tied in 11th defensively (113.6) with a net differential of plus +4.5 which ranks seventh overall.
Despite their overall placement, the Nuggets aren’t as solid against the spread with a 20-26-2 record through 48 contests.
Nuggets Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Nikola Jokic, C (questionable—back)
- Vlatko Cancar, SF (OUT indefinitely—knee)
- Julian Strawther, SF (downgraded to OUT—knee)
OKC Thunder
Two tough losses in a row pushed the Thunder back below the Wolves who bested them on Monday to put a punctuation point on the situation.
It was a highly competitive game that witnessed 24 lead changes but in the end, the Thunder succumbed to the Wolves defense in the final frame.
In fairness, it was the Thunder’s fifth game in seven nights with the wear and tear of this harrowing schedule stint showing in their last two losses.
Thunder Stats
The Thunder ranks sixth on offense (119.2), and fourth on defense (111.3) while they offer a plus +7.9 net differential registering second overall.
In terms of the Thunder’s performance against the spread, they are one of the better bets this season with a 30-16-1 record.

Free Denver Nuggets vs. OKC Thunder NBA Prediction:
Entering the match these teams sit second and third in the West. OKC fell from first to third with the loss to the Wolves while Denver surpassed them with their victory over the Bucks.
Both teams will be invested in collecting this win and sending the opposing side a message as it’s the last time they’ll face each other unless they meet in the postseason. NOTE: I’ll reiterate my plea to Sam Presti to go get a veteran center who can defend the big centers and rebound.
As for this match, the updated injury report lists Jokic as questionable while the Thunder could be missing four of five starters as SGA, Dort and Holmgren are all questionable while JDub is definitely out.
Not knowing if any of the above will suit up it’s best to assume they won’t and for that reason, I’m rolling with the Nuggets to steal a win on the road.
