Denver hosts Toronto on Wednesday with the market giving the Nuggets a 63% chance to win after the margin is removed. The price is -4.5 and -187 on the moneyline. The Raptors are 4-3 and the Nuggets are 3-3, so this is a real test of whether the market's respect for Denver holds.
The Raptors make the stronger case on the numbers. They're scoring 119.1 points per game and allowing 111.4, and they've covered in 4 of 6 games this season. Their moneyline record is 4-2, and they're on a one-game win streak. Kawhi Leonard is listed as out or doubtful, but the team's scoring and cover numbers still stand out. Toronto has been the more profitable side to back so far.
Denver's argument is home court and history. The Nuggets have beaten Toronto in both recent meetings, including a 106-103 win on Dec. 31 and a 121-115 win on Mar. 20. They're scoring 113.3 and allowing 115.7, and their ATS record is just 2-4. Spencer Jones and Julian Strawther are out or doubtful. The case for Denver is that the head-to-head edge and home floor matter more than the early-season cover rate.
The line has moved toward Toronto. The spread went from -5.5 to -4.5, and the moneyline went from -230 to -187. The total sits at 231 with no significant movement. Best prices: Denver moneyline -180 at BetUS, Toronto moneyline +165 at BetAnything, spread -4.5 (-110) and +4.5 (-110) both at BetAnything, and the total 231 with over and under both at -110 at BetAnything.
