The Denver Nuggets are navigating a brutal schedule down the stretch of the season. After a back to back in Houston and Oklahoma City (Denver’s fifth and sixth game on the road in the last seven) the Nuggets return home for their third game in four nights. Luckily, the competition eases up substantially in this game as the Washington Wizards are in town. The Wizards have won just one game in their last seven and are looking to turn the page on what has been a forgettable season.
What was once a promising core has been derailed by injuries and poor contracts.
