The Nuggets are 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall. Denver is 1-3-1 ATS in its last five games versus the Southeast Divison.
Prediction:
Washington is strong offensively, but plays little defense and in the thin air of Denver that is not going to fly against a squad that is strong on both ends of the floor. I see a blowout in the cards here. The Nuggets are playing fantastic basketball right now and I see it continuing tonight.
