Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction: Denver could be better than last season

Prediction for the NBA Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets match which will take place on February 9th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The game against Denver will be the first home game for Darvin Ham's team after a long road trip. The Lakers have been on a hot streak, winning four out of six games. The most notable wins were the insane 145:144 (118:118) double-overtime victory over Golden State and the 114:105 win over Boston, in which the Lakers played without Anthony Davis and LeBron James.

After an unsuccessful trip to Oklahoma, where they lost to the Thunder without Nikola Jokic (100:105), the Nuggets met twice at home with Portland. The underdogs of the West failed to give Denver an excellent resistance - 120:108 and 112:103. Jokic participated in both games and is ready to play against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Denver could be better than last season, and there's a chance the Nuggets could stop the Lakers at the second attempt - the first meeting between the rivals in this championship took place in October and ended in a 107:119 loss for LeBron & Co. However, we won't pick the Lakers to win. We will choose their individual TO.
