Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for Portland Trail Blazers vs Denver Nuggets

Portland Trail Blazers

The Portland Trail Blazers registered their second consecutive win after beating the Indiana Pacers in the last game by 116-100. The Trail Blazers have an average of 110.3 points per game but managed to better that in their last two games scoring 116 in each.

Portland are the fourth-best team in the NBA from the arc with an average of 38.3% and they proved that last Sunday by making 17 of 40 attempts averaging 42%. It is important that coach Chauncey Billups’ boys keep that momentum against the league’s second-best shooting team.

Denver Nuggets

The Denver Nuggets suffered their third defeat in a row after losing at home to the Dallas Mavericks by 115-116 on Wednesday. With that loss, the Nuggets slipped down to the fifth position in the Western Conference standings. 

Nikola Jokic had an unusually quiet game to his standards with 19 points. The Denver Nuggets are the best shooting team in the NBA with 50% of their field goals made. However, shooting just 3% less against the Mavericks cost the Nuggets the match. In any case, coach Michael Malone needs to put his team back on track and end this losing streak.

Portland Trail Blazers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
