Nuggets vs. Suns Odds & Betting Predictions - February 9, 2025

Jokic should feast against the combo of Nick Richards and Mason Plumlee when the Nuggets face off against the Suns on Saturday night. Even after the acquisition of Nick Richards, the Suns are 20th in Rebound % and are allowing the seventh-most rebounds to their opponents. They simply are not a strong rebounding team. Jokic is averaging 12.7 rebounds per game this season but he’s had a few weaker rebounding games lately, many in tougher matchups or blowouts. This game is just a 5 point spread and Jokic should see his typical allotment of minutes. There is also some potential for Murray and MPJ both to sit as they’re listed as Questionable for this one. This would not only keep the game closer but may force Jokic to grab a few extra boards.
