*10* GAME OF THE WEEK on Denver Nuggets.

The Memphis Grizzlies are 4-2 since losing their star center Marc Gasol for the season to a broken right foot. They lost to 111-106 to the Suns their last time out though, and I think they're in for a very tough game at Denver tonight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. The Nuggets Going Big - Denver's Danilo Gallinari is likely to sit out tonight's contest and it's expected to go big with Kenneth Faried and Nikola Jokic in the frontcourt to make up for the loss. That could prove to be a recipe for success as that would make Marc Gasol's absence even more costly for the visitors as they've been forced to go with a smaller lineup without their big man.

2. Previous Meetings - The Grizzlies have won both meetings this season but won by just one point here in Denver on Jan. 21. They're 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings at Pepsi Center.

3. X-Factor - The Nuggets failed to cover the spread when they lost 122-116 in overtime at Dallas on Friday, but they're 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS loss.

Selection: This is a play on the Denver Nuggets (10*)
