Here we are again, with the Denver Nuggets and Utah Jazz facing off in the Battle of Players Picked In Denver’s Draft Slot. Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell are both doing well in Utah (though Mitchell has not taken the step forward many were expecting in his sophomore campaign) and the Jazz have won six of their last seven games to climb back into the Western Conference playoff picture after a slow start. The Nuggets have fought off some of the most horrible injury luck in the Association to stand near the top of the conference - but that grip on home court is nowhere near secure in the stacked West either.
