Washington Wizards vs Denver Nuggets Pick – 3/15/2025

On March 15, 2025, the Washington Wizards will clash with the Denver Nuggets in a Saturday night showdown at Ball Arena, set to tip off at 9:00 PM ET. The Wizards, currently sitting at 14-51, are looking to build on their surprising victory over the Detroit Pistons, where they edged out a 129-125 win as 13.5-point underdogs. This was a notable upset, given their 15% implied probability of winning heading into that game.

In stark contrast, the Nuggets boast a much stronger record at 43-24 and have been playing solid basketball lately, winning 33 of their last 50 games. However, the Nuggets are facing a challenging situation as this game marks a back-to-back set, having played just the night before against the Los Angeles Lakers, which they won 131-126. The lack of rest could be a factor, potentially impacting their performance against a Wizards team that is eager to capitalize on any fatigue.

Betting odds heavily favor the Nuggets, with a spread set at Nuggets -12.5 and a moneyline of -750. This gives the Wizards an implied win probability of just 14%, while the Nuggets sit at a robust 86%. For those considering player prop markets, Nikola Jokic's points and rebounds are drawing significant interest, with the line moving from Over 40.5 to Over 41.5, indicating sharp money on the over.
