The Denver Nuggets will close out a four-game home stand tonight against the New Orleans Pelicans as they also wrap up the season series. The Nuggets are currently 2-1 against the Pelicans this season.
The Nuggets come in to tonight’s game following a disappointing home loss to the Utah Jazz that dropped their record to 42-19. Despite the loss, Denver is still just a half game back of the Golden State Warriors for first place in the Western Conference standings. The Nuggets still hold a four-game lead, as well as the tie-breaker, over the Oklahoma City Thunder for second place in the conference.
