Denver have won nine of their last ten games and are on a mission to finish the season as the number one team and defending champions. This is Denver's spot at home where they just ball out, where they are comfortable and are covering their games. Phoenix struggle when they play in Denver and have trouble covering the spread against them. However, Phoenix did win the last game in Denver by 10 points and took the Nuggets to overtime so the Nuggets are playing with revenge that they lost that one at home. This is Denver's second home game so they have no travel and a day of rest in between. This is a great spot for Denver to get their revenge off a Suns team who roll into this game off a loss to the Spurs. Beal is questionable for the Suns and both Murray and Jokic are listed as questionable which means they should play, even if Jokic is on limited minutes. Denver are fighting for home court advantage in the playoffs so they will be dialed in tonight in what will be a pre-playoff type game.

Phoenix are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games. Phoenix are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games against Denver. Phoenix are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games on the road.
