What to Know

The Denver Nuggets will be playing at home against the Houston Rockets at 9:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday at Ball Arena. The timing is sure in the Nuggets' favor as the squad sits on eight straight wins at home while the Rockets have not had much luck on the away from home, with six straight road losses.

Winning is just a little bit easier when you work as a team to rack up ten more assists than your opponent, a fact the Nuggets proved on Monday. They came out on top against Los Angeles by a score of 113-104. While the oddsmakers failed to call the winner, they nailed the 217 point over/under.

Reggie Jackson had a dynamite game for the Nuggets, dropping a double-double on 35 points and 13 assists. The team also got some help courtesy of DeAndre Jordan, who dropped a double-double on 21 points and 13 rebounds.

Meanwhile, Houston was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Tuesday as they fell 121-115 to Dallas. The Rockets have struggled against the Mavericks recently, as their match on Tuesday was their fourth consecutive lost matchup.

The losing side was boosted by Alperen Sengun, who scored 31 points along with 9 rebounds and 6 assists.

Their wins bumped Denver to 12-6 and Los Angeles to 7-9.

As for their next game, the Nuggets are the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by ten points. Against the spread, they have been a house darling this year with a chancy 7-11 ATS record.

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: The Nuggets haven't given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 12.7 turnovers per game. However, it's not like the Rockets struggle in that department as they've been averaging only 11.9 per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
