*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Sunday, February 2nd. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Monday, February 3rd.
New Orleans Pelicans
It’s been a tough haul for the Pelicans who just can’t get fully healthy and even when they battle keep coming up short. Case in point in the last two matches New Orleans lost to the Mavericks by one and the Celtics by two.
A side thought of the Luka-AD deal was someone like Zion Williamson becomes much more logical to trade now, especially with Dejounte Murray tearing his Achilles and Herb Jones also lost for the season.

Pelicans Stats
The Pelicans rank 26th offensively (109.5), and 28th defensively (117.8) while posting a minus -8.2 net differential which ranks 29th overall.
New Orleans is below average against the spread with a 20-28-1 record through 49 games this season.
Pelicans Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Daniel Theis, C (questionable — thumb)
- Jordan Hawkins, G (questionable illness)
- Brandon Ingram, SF (OUT— ankle)
- Dejounte Murray, SG (OUT for season — Achilles)
- Herb Jones, SF (OUT— shoulder)
Denver Nuggets
With the shocking trade still reverberating perhaps the only two players in the NBA who are completely safe are Nikola Jokic and Victor Wembanyama. Jokic is simply the best player in the world and appears to be the most low-maintenance superstar since Tim Duncan.
While the Nuggets could use some additions to bolster their depth the one major positive they can latch onto is the upcoming schedule is primarily against tanking teams.
Nuggets Stats
Denver ranks fourth offensively (118.3) and 21st defensively (114.2) with a net differential of plus +4.1 which ranks seventh overall.
Despite their overall placement, the Nuggets aren’t as solid against the spread with a 23-25-1 record through 49 contests.
Nuggets Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Russell Westbrook, PG (questionable — hamstring)
- Peyton Watson, SF (questionable — knee)

Free NBA Prediction:
The Nuggets have this bad habit of easing into games which has put them in hot water because they fall behind and then are forced to battle back for the win.
That strategy didn’t work against the Wolves, Bulls, and Knicks but Michael Malone used that film to get his team focused leading to two consecutive wins.
While I don’t typically love large spreads and Williamson is back, I still like the Nuggets to win this one easily.
