The Denver Nuggets have regained their confidence after going 5-0 on a recent homestand and climbing up to third place in the Western Conference. They will need that confidence if they want to continue their win streak against the Los Angeles Lakers tonight on NBA TV.
Of course, the Lakers sit atop the West with a 24-5 record, one of those wins which came at Denver’s expense just a few weeks ago. Tonight, things will be different as LeBron James is likely to miss his first game of the season due to a thoraric muscle strain.
