The Denver Nuggets (5-2) host the Miami Heat (4-3) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Wednesday, November 5, at Ball Arena.
The Nuggets look to keep their momentum going after a 130-124 win over the Sacramento Kings. They shot 51.5% from the field as a team, a testament to their excellent work on offense where they rank 2nd in the league (122.7).
Nikola Jokic led the charge for the Nuggets, stuffing the stat sheet with 34 points, 7 rebounds, 14 assists, 4 steals, and 2 blocks. But it's not just Jokic who put in the work in this game. Denver also had five other players scoring in double digits, including 21 and 20 from Christian Braun and Aaron Gordon.
As for the Heat, they want to finish this current four-game road trip on a high note. After losing the first two games, they managed to claw past the Los Angeles Clippers, 120-119, on Monday. It was a thrilling game throughout, and a missed game-winner attempt from Clippers star Kawhi Leonard sealed the win for the Heat.
Bam Adebayo led the Heat with 25 points, 10 boards, and 4 assists, while Norman Powell produced 21 against his former team.
