NBA: Nuggets vs. Clippers Pick, Prediction

Tonight on TNT, the Denver Nuggets will try to advance past the pesky Los Angeles Clippers on the road at the Intuit Dome at 10:00 PM EST.

The Nuggets are up 3-2, coming off a decisive 131-115 victory this past Tuesday night as Jamal Murray delivered a game-high 43 points, including eight 3-point field goals.

Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue has had to juggle big personnel decisions throughout this series; just last game, he sacrificed defense for more offense, specifically with respect to his bench unit.

Forward Derrick Jones Jr. and Ben Simmons saw their minutes plummet, while Bogdan Bogdanovic and Nic Batum were the beneficiaries.

Bogdanovic turned in 18 points on 5 of 11 shooting with four assists. But the Clippers still had to be frustrated as they relinquished 131 points with consistent open looks from Denver, even in non-Jokic minutes. 

Instead of betting on whether Lue will count on Bogdanovic once again, we’re willing to bet Batum’s production will stay consistent.

While Lue has juggled this battle of offense versus defense, he certainly feels comfortable giving Nic Batum extended run. Batum has exceeded 18 minutes in each of the five games so far, and it is easy to see why. Batum strikes a nice balance of providing spacing and some sneaky facilitating on the offensive end while not being a liability on the defensive end with some needed versatility. 

In front of a rowdy home crowd, expect Batum to knock down a few threes and clear this number.

PICK: BATUM 10+ POINTS, REBOUNDS, ASSISTS
