Good health and good fortune made for a very good day off for the Pacers on Tuesday as they prepared to face the Nuggets in Denver on Wednesday night.
The mile high matchup is never an easy road game and tougher so in recent years with a strong, young Nuggets team that has developed into a serious contender in the Western Conference. That team is fueled by MVP Nikola Jokic, potent scoring threat Jamal Murray and a young, dynamic forward who can burn you inside out out in Michael Porter Jr.
This is where the good fortune comes in for the Pacers.
