How to bet on the Nuggets

There are a multitude of ways to place bets on the Nuggets throughout the NBA regular season and postseason — moneyline, point spread, over/under, futures, props, live betting, parlays, and teasers are just some of the wagers available through top legal, regulated sportsbooks.

Moneyline

Moneyline wagers involve placing a bet on a team to win a game outright. Using the same Nuggets-Kings example, say Denver is a -150 favorite. That means bettors placing a bet on a Nuggets victory will win $1 for every $1.50 they wagered if a win does indeed come to pass. If Denver loses, the bettor will lose the amount they originally staked.

Point Spread

Point spread wagers involve placing a bet on the margin of victory or defeat a team will produce in a certain game. For example, say the Nuggets are favored by 5 points in a matchup against the Sacramento Kings, denoted as “-5” on a sportsbook’s betting market. Bettors wagering the Nuggets -5 will cash their tickets if Denver beats Sacramento by at least six points. If they win by exactly 5, they’ll receive back the amount they originally staked, while if they win by less than 5 or lose outright, the bettor will lose the amount they originally staked.

Point total (over/under)

An over-under wager involves betting whether a game, quarter, half, etc. will end over or under a certain point total for either both or one of the teams in a game. For example, say the projected total for a hypothetical Kings-Nuggets game is 230 points. Bettors placing a wager on the Over will cash their tickets if the game ends with a combined score of 231 points or more, and they’ll lose the amount staked if ends with 229 points or less. The game ending exactly with 230 points would result in the bettor getting the original amount staked in return but no actual winnings.

Futures

Futures wagers involve placing a bet on an outcome that won’t unfold until a later date, such as the end of a season. An example of a futures wager involving the Nuggets would have been a bet prior to the start of the season on whether they’d finish with the top seed in the Western Conference. Bettors who would have placed that wager would have cashed their tickets in conjunction with whatever odds the wager carried at the time.

Other Nuggets bets

Other ways to bet on the Nuggets include prop bets (i.e. whether a player or the team itself will exceed or fall below a certain statistical benchmark), live betting (wagers placed as a game is ongoing and based on certain in-game events), parlays (i.e. placing a bet on the Nuggets winning and Jokic scoring over a certain amount of points, or a bet on both the Nuggets and another team winning on the same night) and teasers (lowering the point spread the Nuggets are favored by against a certain opponent and betting another team by adding the same number of points to the spread of their game).

Nuggets Franchise History

The roots of the current Denver Nuggets franchise trace back to the American Basketball Association’s Denver Rockets, which were in existence between the 1967-1968 and 1973-74 seasons. The team changed its name to the Nuggets for the start of the 1974-1975 campaign and officially began play in the NBA in the 1976-77 season following the merger of the two leagues.

The Nuggets have enjoyed various periods of success, with the period coming between the 1980-81 and 1989-90 seasons. Under the leadership of Doug Moe in that decade, Denver recorded a 432-357 regular-season record and 24-37 mark in the postseason. The likes of Alex English and Kiki Vandeweghe spearheaded some stellar offensive teams that nevertheless frequently came up short on the defensive end.

Legendary coach George Karl’s tenure with the franchise, which spanned from the 2004-05 to the 2012-13 seasons, saw the Nuggets put together a stellar 423-257 regular-season mark, albeit with an accompanying 21-38 tally in the postseason. The era was highlighted by the drafting of Carmelo Anthony in 2003 and the trade acquisition of Allen Iverson in December 2006. 

The Mike Malone Era began with the 2014-15 season and that has been highlighted by Jokic’s emergence into a perennial MVP candidate and the drafting of Murray in 2016. While the team has also recorded another 21 postseason wins during Malone’s ongoing tenure, Denver’s decades-long quest for its first NBA title finally ended during the 2022-23 season when the Nuggets defeated the Miami Heat in five games.
