Kawhi Leonard isn't going to shoot 4 of 17 again, and the Nuggets can't possibly come out as hot as they did in Game 2. This will be a back-and-forth series, and now it's the Clippers' turn. Lay it.

My model says the Nuggets cover the spread in almost 60 percent of simulations, so you're getting strong value with them. Denver continued to show its resilience in Game 2, posting a 110-101 victory to even the series after losing the opener by 23 points. The Nuggets held Clippers star Kawhi Leonard to 13 points on Saturday, his lowest total since an 11-point effort against Portland on Dec. 3. Look for Denver's defense to come up with another strong performance.
