Nuggets vs Raptors Preview

The Nuggets lost to Clippers on Wednesday 111-124, which restricted their chance of moving up in the table. A win against Clippers and a win today with LA Clippers losing to OKC Thunder would have put Nuggets in the 2nd spot. However, that is out of the question now.

Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic are playing well in Orlando and are likely to sit out today’s match. Michael Porter Jr. has been a revelation for the time in the Bubble, and will be a very potent weapon during the playoffs.

Denver Nuggets will go strong in the Playoffs; the team has performed well without key players like Will Barton and Gary Harris. Nuggets bench is also playing well with three consecutive 20 point games from Jerami Grant and support from P.J. Dozier.

Raptors defeated Sixers 125-121 in the previous game. Performances from Kyle Lowry and Pascal Siakam has been the focal point for the side.

The side is playing like a champion team with contributions from each player, especially on the defensive end. They have been able to suffocate opponents well with their well-oiled defensive setup and that will come in extremely handy during the playoffs.

Marc Gasol has been decent but the team will want the big man to fire in playoffs.

The contest tonight would be between the bench players of both teams. Thus, on paper it feels, Nuggets would get the win, owing to their more balanced reserve team.
