Thunder at Nuggets Prediction 11/9/2017

Oklahoma City had won and covered four straight before a 111-105 loss as a 6-point favorite. They come into this game on a three-game losing streak and it must be noted that they were favored in all three. Denver comes into this match on a three-game losing streak against the spread, but they have won three of their last four overall. They’ve been a solid 4-2 at home losing only to two quality opponents in Golden State and Washington. They only need to get the “W” here to get the money and that’s what I feel will be the outcome tonight.
