The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to sustain their recent winning momentum when they host the Denver Nuggets in the NBA on Saturday. Can they overcome the Nuggets to secure their third consecutive victory? Here is our prediction for the game.
The Cleveland Cavaliers saw off the Phoenix Suns in a 242-point thriller on Wednesday. A 16-point opening-quarter lead proved decisive as the Cavaliers thrashed the Suns 129–113 to secure their second win in a row.
That victory also marked their third consecutive win at home and fourth from six games overall. However, they have lost 16 of their 35 games this season, compared to the Denver Nuggets' 23 wins.
The Denver Nuggets defeated the Toronto Raptors by just three points, winning 106–103 to bounce back from a heavy 24-point loss to the Miami Heat. Notably, the Nuggets have struggled for results lately, posting a 3–4 record in their last seven games.
However, David Adelman's charges remain potent opponents, sitting third in the Western Conference standings with a solid 23–10 record. They also won 13 of their 18 away games this season.
