Early Game Betting Trends – Morning games favor the under due to disrupted player routines. Recent example: Celtics vs. Nuggets.
Denver Nuggets Outlook – Currently 39-22 (2nd in West) with the 4th toughest schedule left (21 games). Munaf sets their win total at 50.5; Mackenzie leans over but notes Jamal Murray’s inconsistency & road struggles.

Grizzlies (-6.5) vs. Hawks – Atlanta’s terrible defense since All-Star break. Mackenzie: "This line should be -10.5."

Mavericks (-1.5) vs. Kings – Sabonis out; Kyrie Over Points is a strong bet.
