Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s<\/a> NBA odds around the Grizzlies vs. Nuggets odds and make our expert NBA picks and predictions<\/a> for the best bets.<\/p>\n Season series: Nuggets lead 1-0<\/p>\n Denver won 125-115 in the first meeting this season in Memphis on Nov. 24 as a 6.5-point favorite as the Over (235.5) cashed.

The Over is 5-2 in that same 7-game span.<\/p>\n Memphis suffered a gut-wrenching 114-113 loss at the Golden State Warriors Monday as a 9-point underdog as the Over (218.5) cashed. G Ty Jerome scored 19 points with 7 assists and 2 steals with 2 3-pointers. They’ve dropped 3 in a row, but the Grizzlies are a respectable 4-1 against the spread (ATS) in the past 5 games, while the Over has cashed in 6 in a row.<\/p>\n Denver was nipped 119-117 as a 2.5-point favorite against the Cleveland Cavaliers Monday as the Under (242.5) cashed. C Nikola Jokic did his part with 22 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists with a block. The Nuggets have dropped 4 of the past 5 games, while going 2-3 ATS. The Over is 7-1 across the previous 8 outings despite Monday’s Under against the Cavs.<\/p>\n Watch the NBA on Fubo!<\/a>Grizzlies at Nuggets odds<\/p>\n Provided by BetMGM Sportsbook<\/a>; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub<\/a> for a full list.

Memphis has lost 3 in a row, and 9 of the past 11 outings since Jan. 21.<\/p>\n The NUGGETS -13.5 (-110) are the lean, but go with a half-unit play at most.<\/p>\n Denver has covered 3 of the past 4 games as a favorite of 9 or more points. Still, Memphis is 4-1 ATS in the past 5 games, so don’t get carried away. Even shorthanded, the Grizzlies haven’t faced a lot of blowout situations lately.<\/p>\n The OVER 238.5 (-110) is also worth playing lightly.<\/p>\n The Over has cashed in 7 of the past 8 games for Denver, while cashing in each of the past 6 outings for Memphis. The Over is 5-2 in the past 7 meetings in this series, too.<\/p>\n For more sports betting picks and tips, check out SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow @danieledobish on\u00a0Twitter\/X<\/a>.\u00a0Follow SportsbookWire on Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n HoopsHype<\/a> | Celtics Wire<\/a> | Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
