Friday night in the 2025-26 NBA regular season sees conference pride on the line as the Denver Nuggets take on the Atlanta Hawks at Ball Arena. The Nuggets are third in the Western Conference standings, while the Hawks are ninth in the East. Here's our match prediction.
After suffering back-to-back defeats against the Cavaliers and the Nets, the Nuggets knew that an immediate response was needed.
Without wasting time, the Nuggets bounced back with a 125-124 overtime away victory against the 76ers before concluding their seven-game road trip with a 114-110 win against the Boston Celtics.
David Adelman's men are at home and should be confident of extending their winning run to three games. In front of their home crowd, they've won four of their last five matches. This is a significant improvement, having dropped four straight games.
The Atlanta Hawks are going through an inconsistent spell. Currently, the visitors have lost nine of their last 12 matches.
The Hawks come into this match off the back of a 117-100 home victory. That result couldn't have come at a better time after suffering two successive defeats against the Toronto Raptors.
Their performance on the road has been below expectations, with their last two matches resulting in defeat. However, that should be the tip of the iceberg for a side that has dropped five games in six outings.

Our Denver Nuggets vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction
The Denver Nuggets have been impressive, winning their last two consecutive NBA games. They have also performed well without their key player, Nikola Jokic, who has missed five games, boasting a 3-2 record.
The Nuggets should be able to see off the threat of an Atlanta Hawks side that has offered very little on their travels. The Hawks have lost five of their last six away games, including a two-match losing streak. With the Nuggets winning four of their last five home matches, expect them to snatch a hard-fought win at home. Our Denver Nuggets vs Atlanta Hawks prediction: Denver Nuggets wins.
