Special Offer: Bet on the Nuggets and Lakers to Win a Free Bet (DraftKings)

The NBA bubble has been a roaring success. Since action resumed last Thursday, we’ve seen teams like the Portland Trail Blazers surge, while teams like the Memphis Grizzlies have faltered. The Washington Wizards have even fallen behind the inactive Charlotte Hornets in the standings!

In the Western Conference, the Lakers have locked down the No. 1 seed. The Los Angeles Clippers and Denver Nuggets are in a tight race for the No. 2 seed, and Monday’s game between the Lakers and the Nuggets will go a long way to finalize seeding.

DraftKings Sportsbook has put together an interesting special offer for this important matchup. Starting on Sunday, bettors who put at least $1 on the Lakers/Nuggets game will be eligible for a free bet. How much, you ask? Well, the amount depends upon the number of users who bet on the game — it’ll increase $1 for every 1,000 users who place an eligible wager.

Recommended Bets

Denver Nuggets Moneyline (+140)
The Los Angeles Lakers have locked down the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. The Lakers don’t have much to play for, and I fully expect the Nuggets to have a strong showing in this one. Los Angeles hasn’t won since they beat the Jazz last Monday, and they’ve lost to the Thunder, Rockets, and Pacers since then. In contrast, the Nuggets are 3-1 over that span, with their only loss coming to Damian Lillard and the surging Portland Trail Blazers. You can more than double your money with this line, but if you’re feeling more conservative, take the Nuggets on the point spread (+4) at -109.
