Charlotte Hornets vs Denver Nuggets Prediction – 2/20/2025


On February 20, 2025, the Charlotte Hornets (14-39) will face off against the Denver Nuggets (36-19) in a Thursday night showdown at Ball Arena, set to tip off at 9:00 PM ET. The Nuggets enter this contest riding high on an impressive 8-game winning streak, while the Hornets have struggled significantly, losing 37 of their last 50 games.

The Nuggets are heavy favorites, with a spread currently set at Nuggets -16.0. Their Moneyline stands at -1100, reflecting an implied win probability of 89%. In stark contrast, the Hornets, who pulled off a surprising upset against the Los Angeles Lakers in their last outing, have a Moneyline of +750, equating to an 11% implied win probability. Despite that recent victory, the Hornets are at a disadvantage, facing a back-to-back scenario after playing just yesterday.

The Nuggets have enjoyed a full 8 days of rest, giving them a significant edge in terms of player stamina and preparation. Meanwhile, the Hornets will be battling fatigue, which could impact their performance against a well-rested and confident Nuggets squad.

Sharp bettors are leaning towards the Under in player prop markets, particularly on Russell Westbrook's points. The prop total opened at Under 11.5 Points (-115) before shifting to 10.5 (-115), indicating a trend that could affect how fans approach betting on this matchup.
