The Denver Nuggets visit the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday night in a game that can be seen on TNT. The Nuggets are battling for second place in the Western Conference with Memphis, and Denver is still considered a threat to win the NBA title, as they have one of the top players in the league in Nikola Jokic who is averaging nearly 30 points per game this season. The Bucks have played better of late but they have the misfortune of playing in the Eastern Conference where Cleveland and Boston reside and those two teams are well ahead of the Bucks. Milwaukee has a superstar of their own in Giannis Antetokounmpo who is averaging about 31 points per game this season. Denver is 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games against the Bucks. Let’s look at Nuggets vs. Bucks same game parlay picks.

Nuggets at Bucks Same Game Parlay Picks
The Nuggets will have had an extra day of rest for this game and last year’s result notwithstanding, they have more than held their own against the Bucks in this series. Denver is the better team and a more reliable team against the NBA betting odds. The Bucks will likely be a small home favorite and I think there is value in taking the Nuggets plus the points. The pick on the total is a little more difficult, as the trends point to the game going under, but neither of these teams plays a lot of defense. I lean a bit toward the over, so I will back the Nuggets and the Over on the same game parlay.
