Denver Nuggets at Toronto Raptors Prediction
The Nuggets are a team that can be exceptionally dangerous if they are taken lightly by any stretch. This team has a plethora of talent and while Toronto may have the shiny All-Star candidate names on their starting roles, Mudiay and Barton may soon be the next big thing to hit the NBA in terms of back court duos. To complement the duo of Barton and Mudiay, the Nuggets have even more athletes at their disposal in bench roles. Most notably, the Nuggets have employed the services of Small Forward Wilson Chandler and Power Forward Kenneth Faried. While many may speak of the potency of Toronto’s offense, this does not bear much consequence to Denver who enjoys applying a similar approach. Denver will let opponents score as much as they so desire as the Nuggets are a team that enjoy bursts of offense that can be outright explosive. The Nuggets can certainly keep this one close if at nothing else pull off the upset.

Take Denver +7
