The Portland Trail Blazers face the Denver Nuggets for the first time this season. It is a highly anticipated matchup after Jusuf Nurkic knocked his old team out of the playoffs last year.
The game can be viewed locally via NBCSNW or heard over Rip City Radio 620. It begins at 7:00 p.m. PT in Portland’s Moda Center.
Denver enters Monday night on a hot streak, having won five of their last six. They are on a three-game win streak, including an eight-point victory over the Brooklyn Nets.
Brooklyn defeated Portland three days later and worsened their recent slide.
