The Pacers take on the Nuggets on Monday night in what will be Indiana guard Caris LeVert’s second game with the team. LeVert has recently returned from cancer surgery after finding out he had renal cell carcinoma.
LaVert started his comeback with 13 points and 7 rebounds in the Pacers’ 11-point road win over the Suns on March 13.
The reloaded Pacers will be taking on the newly-minted MVP frontrunner Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets, who had won five straight before their loss to the Mavericks on March 13. Denver has split their last two games overall and has failed to cover in any game post-All-Star break.
Our PRO Report suggests that sharp bettors are taking notice of the Nuggets’ Against The Spread (ATS) woes, and are thusly backing the Pacers. Let’s take a look.
