These teams are going in different directions. Denver has been playing really well and is one of the hottest teams in the league while New Orleans has not played well without Williamson and Ingram. Denver has been dealing with injuries of their own and thier is a good chance they get Jokic back for this one. The Pelicans have lost four straight and have struggled on the offensive end without Ingram or Williamson. Denver has the third-highest adjusted offensive rating and they are scoring the sixth most points per game. Even without Jokic, New Orleans will struggle to slow down the nuggets and if Jokic plays it will be almost impossible. New Orleans doesn't have the offense to keep up in this one and the Nuggets will come away with a win.
