After dropping a heartbreaker to the Oklahoma City Thunder and a home game to the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Denver Nuggets could have stumbled into Christmas on a losing streak with road games against the Portland Trailblazers and Golden State Warriors, two places that Denver had not won in since 2014. Instead Denver took both games and rolled into Christmas on a high. Trying not to waste that momentum, they host the Utah Jazz tonight - a team that always plays Denver tough no matter who is in the lineup and that has already beaten Denver this year without Rudy Gobert, who will also miss tonight’s game.
