NBA: Nuggets vs. Thunder, 3:30pm EST Nuggets +8 (-110) 1 unit (Fanatics)
The series has been a tightly contested battle, and now it all comes down to this decisive Game 7. The Thunder regained control with a 112-105 win in Game 5, but Denver responded in Game 6 with a 119-107 victory to force the finale. While the Thunder enter as favorites at home behind their deep rotation and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s leadership, the Nuggets will once again lean on the brilliance of Nikola Jokic. That said, the inconsistency of the Nuggets’ supporting cast, now with Aaron Gordon potentially playing through an injury or missing the game outright, has been a recurring issue, and the drop-off is especially clear when Jokic is off the floor, exposing their lack of depth compared to the Thunder. Still, in a Game 7 scenario, experience and composure matter. I expect the Nuggets to come out focused and make a strong start, and I’m backing them to stay within the number even if they ultimately fall short.
