The Denver Nuggets (34-15) continue their Eastern Conference road trip with a stop against the Philadelphia 76ers (31-16). The teams will be meeting during the NBA’s “Rivals Week” and is nationally televised on ABC. The Nuggets-Sixers “Rivalry” is almost entirely from the conversations around Nikola Jokiu0107 vs Joel Embiid, something that is all too prevalent with Jokiu0107 being selected as an All-Star Starter while Embiid was not.
Both teams are relatively healthy, despite a dreary injury report, both teams should have almost all their starters. MPJ returns to being questionable after missing some time with “Personal Reasons”.
