The Denver Nuggets need a win tonight to wrap up the top seed in the Western Conference.
The Houston Rockets need a loss tonight to keep hold of a guaranteed top 6 pick in the NBA Draft.
Yeah, tonight seems primed for a blowout win for the Nuggets.
Two-time MVP Nikola Jokic is currently holding the second-best odds to win MVP this season behind Joel Embiid. Voter fatigue and a solid closing kick from Embiid has flipped the odds from a couple months ago. I’d still pick Jokic if I had to start a team, but there’s no doubt Embiid is also an incredible player.
