The streaking Denver Nuggets will welcome the stuttering Orlando Magic in their next assignment in the NBA. They enter this game with the second-best record in the Western Conference, whereas their visitors have the fifth-best in the East. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Nuggets have won their last five games. They defeated the Rockets in OT 128-125 last time out to improve to 19-6. Only two other teams in the entire league have assembled a better record than David Adelman’s men.
The Nuggets, who won both meetings with the Magic last season, have four players on the injury report. Aaron Gordon and Christian Braun remain long-term absentees, while Tim Hardaway and Peyton Watson are questionable.
The Magic are embarking on a four-game tour of the Western Conference. They are returning to regular-season action after their run to the semi-finals of the NBA Cup.
Jamahl Mosley’s men defeated the Heat in the quarter-finals but were unable to get past eventual in-season champions the Knicks, losing 132-120.
Despite not making it to the championship game, the Magic will see their performance as a significant sign of what they can achieve. Jalen Suggs has been added to the Magic’s ballooning injury report and is out for this trip.
