New Orleans Pelicans vs Denver Nuggets Prediction - 10/29/2025
Updated July 9, 2026
The New Orleans Pelicans and Denver Nuggets will face off at Ball Arena in Denver on Wednesday night. The Nuggets go into this game as the biggest favorite in the NBA on Wednesday. They will try to avoid slipping up against the winless Pelicans here. Before this matchup tips off in the Mile High City, continue reading to get my breakdown of this game, including my Pelicans vs Nuggets prediction.
Player | Prop |
|---|---|
Nikola Jokic | Triple-Double |
Jamal Murray | Over 23.5 points |
Zion Williamson | Under 24.5 points |
Score Projection: Pelicans 104 – Nuggets 118
Win Probability: Pelicans 25%, Nuggets 75%
The Nuggets should continue rolling at the expense of the New Orleans Pelicans in this contest on Wednesday night. New Orleans' defense has been atrocious and they lack the scoring depth to make up for that glaring flaw in their game. We should see the Nuggets win and cover the spread at home, with Jokic being a candidate to put together another triple-double. I'll lay the points with Denver confidently here.
