The Denver Nuggets are division champs. After beating the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night, the Nuggets secured their first division title in nearly a decade and ensured they could finish no worse than a three seed. Now two days later in Portland, Denver appears content to forgo a win in favor of rest, and perhaps hoping the Blazers could help them out along the way. It has already been announced by Altitude TV personality and Nuggets Insider Chris Dempsey that Nikola Jokic, Paul Millsap and Jamal Murray will not play.
