Denver is coming off of two straight losses on the road. It’s not as important to analyze the final scores of these efforts, but they have been close and we have been able to see the early progress some of these players have made.
Wins and losses aren't as closely scrutinized in the preseason but this is a matchup the Nuggets would like to conquer in order to gain some confidence towards the regular season. You would like to see guys like Monte, PJ, and Bones have a good night on both ends because they will see significant playing time with Murray’s absence.
