Point Spread: -3.00 | -105.00 Denver (Away)
Result: Loss
This is Free #NBA play on the Denver #Nuggets.

Denver got off to another terrible start this season, but they've really turned things around in recent weeks. The Nuggets have clawed their way back to .500 with a record of 8-8, and they've won six of seven heading into tonight's game at Utah. One of the reasons for their recent success, has been a more concerted effort on defense.

"Defense wins games and we all know that," Danilo Gallinari said. "We have to keep this formula that we have going, which is keeping teams under 100 points."

The Jazz haven't scored more than 100 points in any of it's last seven games, and has lost five straight, three of those coming at home. Utah has averaged just 95.6 points per game, ranking 23rd in the NBA in scoring.

The Nuggets have covered the spread in five of their last seven trips to Salt Lake City, and the Jazz have covered just once in their last eight home games versus a team with a road record below .500.

Take DEN.
