The Denver Nuggets and the Brooklyn Nets will face off today at Ball Arena. Following a five-game winning streak, Denver has lost three in a row, but it pales in comparison to Brooklyn’s seven-game losing streak. One of those losses came against Denver in late January but it was a tight contest. Brooklyn’s bench, in particular Cam Thomas, stepped up in the absence of Durant, Harden, and Irving. He scored 25 points on four made threes and hit big shots late in that game.
Tonight, the Nuggets expect to face Kyrie Irving for the first time this season, but Kevin Durant will be out and James Harden is questionable.
