Tonight’s game will be the biggest of the season for the New Orleans Pelicans.
New Orleans is currently five games back of their opponents tonight for the eighth seed in the West. To make the playoffs, they will likely have to win all three contests against the Denver Nuggets. That includes tonight’s battle.
Game. On.
The Denver Nuggets currently sit at 35-37, which is good for the eighth best record in the West. They are just a single game up on the Portland Trail-Blazers for that spot, with the season approaching its end. Denver are playing superb of late, winners of their past two in a row and seven of their past 10 games.
