In the game before yesterday with Denver, the team did not just lose, but lost by all accounts. The Suns scored only 90 points and finished the game with a deficit of almost 30 points - 90:117. Bradley Beal and Kevin Durant scored 23 points each, but the next highest scorer for Phoenix, Tyus Jones, had only 9 points.

Denver Nuggets
The Nuggets are also not without problems this season, in particular, demonstrating to date only 23rd defense (passing - 116.3 points per game on average), but, in general, go the distance of the championship much more stable than Phoenix. The team is confidently in the Western Conference playoff zone - on the fifth line with a 16-11 win-loss record.
Nikola Jokic was the main hero of the victory over Phoenix the day before yesterday - 32 points and 7 assists. Michael Porter finished the game with 24 points. Denver has five wins in the last six games.

The day before yesterday, Denver beat Phoenix as confidently as possible, which confirmed the difference in class that exists between the teams at the moment. We believe that the upcoming meeting will fall into this framework, and the Nuggets will again win confidently. We bet on the victory of Nikola Jokic and company, which is also offered good odds, as well as the total more. Defense is not the strongest side of both teams this season, so the opponents are definitely capable of making up for the recent match.
