A win is a win, as they say. After escaping Friday night’s game against the Timberwolves with a one-point OT victory, the Brooklyn Nets head to Denver to take on the Nuggets and two-time MVP Nikola Jokic.
Denver is currently in first place in the West, despite their recent 2-game losing streak, while the Nets have climbed to 5th in the East thanks to a Knicks 3-game losing streak.
Among many things, the biggest hurdle for Sunday’s game is that the Nuggets are pretty much unbeatable at home. They hold a 30-5 record on their home floor, which is nuts.
