San Antonio Spurs Daily Fantasy Spin
Spurs shooting guard Devin Vassell was great in his team’s 118-112 road loss to the Warriors on Friday night. In that contest, the Florida State alum had 24 points in 29 minutes off the bench. He shot 10 of 19 from the field and 4 of 10 from deep while also collecting 4 rebounds, 1 assist, and 1 steal.
San Antonio small forward Keldon Johnson was also exceptional against Golden State on Friday. In his team’s loss, Johnson had 22 points, a game-high 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 made three-pointers, and 2 steals.

Nuggets shooting guard Jamal Murray will miss Sunday’s game with a right hamstring strain. Murray is targeting the beginning of December for a potential return. Jamal Murray is third on the team in scoring this season with 16.3 points per game.
Denver center Nikola Jokic (back), power forward Aaron Gordon (heel), shooting guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle), and point guard Reggie Jackson (back) are all listed as probable to play against San Antonio on Sunday.

Spurs vs. Nuggets NBA Prediction:
I don’t like what I’ve been seeing from Denver of late. The Nuggets have lost 4 of their last 5 games straight up and are 2-5 straight up in their last 7 contests. Their skid seems to coincide with the injury to Jamal Murray who hasn’t played in a game since November 4th. Denver is 1-8 ATS in the 9 games since Murray got hurt. That’s not exactly ideal.
The Spurs are 2-0 ATS in their last 2 games as they lost by 7 to the Clippers on Wednesday night and lost to the Warriors by 6 on Friday night. San Antonio has lost 11 straight games straight up, but 6 of those losses have come by 9 points or less. What’s more, the Spurs are 3-2 ATS in their last 5 games against the Nuggets in Denver. One final number: the Nuggets are 32-35 ATS when playing an opponent on equal rest since the start of last season. They’re playing the Spurs on equal rest on Sunday night. I’m taking San Antonio and the points on the road in Denver.
