Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets: Analysis and Prediction – Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets will play an NBA game.
Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets Odds
Phoenix Suns Team News
The Phoenix Suns entered this season with the highest ambitions, reinforced by Bradley Beal, who, at least as projected, was supposed to form a dominant offensive trio in the NBA with Kevin Durant and Devin Booker.
Such a thing did not happen, mainly because of injuries, but also because it is evident that the other side of the floor must also be considered, regardless of the great attacking talent that this team possesses. After a somewhat shaky start, the Phoenix Suns seemed to be on the right track as they racked up seven wins, until Darko Rajakovic’s Toronto Raptors outplayed them and reduced them to just 105 points. In that game, the most prominent in the defeated team were Kevin Durant with 30 points and Jusuf Nurkic with 19 points. It was not enough for a triumph.
All in all, the Phoenix Suns’ score aren’t that bad. This team sits in a high fifth position in the Western Conference, with 11 wins from 18 games and that is a very positive thing. Mainly because there is still a lot of room in this team’s tank.
Denver Nuggets Team News
If Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon hadn’t gotten injured, we’d probably be talking about a dominant season for the Denver Nuggets, who have played excellently from the start and looked pretty convincing. However, the injury of the second and probably the third-best player of the team thwarted the plans of this team.
So the Denver Nuggets have had a lot of swings lately. In the previous 10 games, they recorded five wins and five losses, but they are still in the second position of the Western Conference with a record of 13-6 and only the Minnesota Timberwolves are ahead. The good news is that Murray is back, and that Nikola Jokic continues to excel. The Serbian center played another monstrous game, a game to remember. He recorded a triple-double in a 134:124 win over the Houston Rockets and added 32 points, 10 rebounds and 15 assists. In addition, he did not turnover a single ball and is the first player in the last 40 years with at least three triple-doubles without turnover.
All of the above points to the fact that the Denver Nuggets have only a better season ahead of them and that the mini-crisis caused by an injury is behind them. How long it will take for the reigning champions to regain their signature rhythm remains to be seen.
