After a couple of games back at home, the Los Angeles Lakers are right back on the road and have a tough path ahead of them as they take on the extremely dangerous Denver Nuggets.
The Lakers have won six of seven games since the All-Star break, but have struggled in their last two contests, blowing a late lead to Portland and nearly doing the same against Orlando. The Nuggets, meanwhile, have lost two straight and now find themselves a game out of the playoffs in the ridiculously tough Western Conference.
The Nuggets are an extremely dangerous offensive team that ranks in the top-10 in points, field goal percentage, and 3-pointers made.
