San Antonio Spurs (16-16) versus Denver Nuggets (17-13) is a Western Conference matchup Saturday night at the AT&T Center. This is the second time these two sides are locking horns in less than 24 hours after the Nuggets hosted the Spurs on Friday night. The Spurs have managed to stay competitive in the Conference, sitting in 10th position, 10.5 games behind the Thunder on top. However, they have struggled to produce consistent results, although most of their recent losses have been by close margins. Like the Spurs, the Nuggets have been inconsistent, losing when expected to win. They ended their two-game skid with a 134-121 victory over the Pistons, with Nikola Jokic scoring 37 points and assisting 8. The Serbian center has been excellent this season, averaging 30.8 points and 9.5 assists per match.

Our San Antonio Spurs vs Denver Nuggets Prediction

The Nuggets should be fine this season if they can keep Jokic fit and healthy. They boast the third most effective attack in the league, scoring an average of 120.1 points per match with a field goal percentage of 50%. However, they are struggling in defense, giving 117.4 points per match, 24th in basketball. The Nuggets and the Spurs don’t have any new injury worries. Vlatko Cancar (knee) and DaRon Holmes II (Achilles) are the long-term absentees for the Nuggets. They should cope well on Saturday without the duo.
