Free Toronto Raptors vs. Denver Nuggets NBA Prediction:
Sunday, March 1st finds two of the leagues six teams with 40 or more wins tipping off as the Toronto Raptors face the Denver Nuggets for the first time this regular season.
Last season, the teams played twice with Denver winning both. The Nuggets holds the all-time record having bested the Raptors in 28 of their 46 matches
Toronto Raptors
It was one of those games the Raptors would rather forget as the Hornets won and the champs lost back-to-back games for the first time since December 23rd and 25th

The injury bug also continued to wreak havoc as big man Serge Ibaka (sore knee) joined Toronto’s other big man, Marc Gasol on the sidelines leaving the Raptors extremely thin and short upfront.
Adding insult to injury (no pun intended)- Fred VanVleet also had to sit because of a sore shoulder effectually also limiting the Raptors small ball options.
Easing the returning Norman Powell back in the lineup was quickly abandoned as he played 36:25 and scored 22 points. He missed eight games after breaking his finger on January 31st.
Kyle Lowry channeled the bulldog (21 points, four rebounds, six assists, and two steals) scoring 10 points in succession to initially put the Raptors on top and then tie the game at 96.
Pascal Siakam (24 points, nine rebounds) and OG Anunoby (24 points, seven rebounds, six steals) served up solid 2-way games but the Raptors bench couldn’t buy a bucket.
A foul before the inbound pass at 2.3 seconds left ended the game on free throws. Ironically, in an earlier match between the clubs, it was a foul called away from the play that allowed the Hornets to score on free throws and send the game to overtime.
December 3rd in Toronto, last season, a tie game also ended on an off-ball pre inbound pass foul giving the Nuggets the win at the line.
Three off-ball fouls within seconds of the game end – that must be some sort of record.
Denver Nuggets
The Nuggets failed to capture a win that would’ve put them in the driver’s seat versus the Clippers since they won the first meeting and play only three times this season.
Their final meeting on March 18th in Denver could carry extra weight, especially if the teams remain tied or closely grouped.
In the loss to the Clippers, Nikola Jokic led the way with 21 points while Jerami Grant (20), Will Barton (18) and Jamal Murray (11) were the only other double-figure scorers.
LA systematically took down the Nuggets as if they were dissecting them. The Clippers won the first and final frames by 10 points and the third quarter by nine.
The sole team category not lead by Nikola Jokic is blocks that Jerami Grant tops (0.8). Nikola Jokic leads five team categories including points (20.8), assists (6.7), rebounds (10.0), steals (1.2) and, field goal percentage (53.1%).
Ankle injuries may cause two Nuggets to miss the game Sunday as Paul Millsap had to leave the Clippers match and Noah Vonleh who was out versus the Clippers. Bol Bol (foot) remains out indefinitely.
NBA Betting Trends:

- Underdog is 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings.
Free Toronto Raptors vs. Denver Nuggets NBA Prediction:
If Ibaka, Gasol, and VanVleet remain out it’ll be hard for the Raptors to stick with the Nuggets but these matches are always close.
