Denver Nuggets vs Phoenix Suns Prediction

🔮 Expert Prediction

The Suns roll into Denver tonight, 40-32, looking to make a statement against the 44-28 Nuggets. The key matchup to watch is Nikola Jokic vs. Jusuf Nurkic, a battle of brute force and finesse. Nurkic gave Jokic fits last time out, holding him to 18 points on 7-of-18 shooting on March 5th, a rare off-night for the MVP. Denver's won three straight since that loss in Phoenix, including a gritty road win over Minnesota. Phoenix, meanwhile, has been up and down, dropping two of their last three, including a 128-118 loss to the Spurs. I think the Suns are going to catch the Nuggets sleeping a bit. Phoenix wins this one 115-110.
