Our SportslineAI is projecting a total of 224 for this game. In addition, the Sportsline Sim model has an A grade on the over. I can understand why both models agree on the over here as the Denver Nuggets rank first in offensive rating at 118.2 and shoot a league best 51.2% from the floor and 39.2% from 3. Defensively however, the Nuggets give up quite a few points. At home they give up 109.4 Points per game (PPG) and that rises to 116.4 PPG when on the road. For the Cleveland Cavaliers; before the all-star break were hitting their stride offensively averaging 115.1 points per game in the month of February.
