Game preview
Denver Nuggets (50-28) vs Portland Trail Blazers (40-38) — The reigning champions, the Denver Nuggets, bring their formidable offense (121.6 points per game) to face the Portland Trail Blazers. Spearheading the Nuggets' attack is the triple-double machine Nikola Jokić, who is averaging an incredible 27.85 points, 12.87 rebounds, and 10.85 assists. The Trail Blazers, averaging 115.4 points per game, are missing key players with Damian Lillard (OFS - Achilles), Jerami Grant (Out - Calf), and Vít Krejčí (Out - Calf) all sidelined, while Shaedon Sharpe is questionable. This leaves a significant void in their scoring and playmaking. Deni Avdija (23.92 points, 7.02 rebounds, 6.69 assists) and Donovan Clingan (11.97 points, 11.6 rebounds) will be crucial for Portland to stay competitive against a Denver team that only concedes 116.8 points per game. The Nuggets also have some players questionable like Bruce Brown and Zeke Nnaji, but their core remains healthy. Given Portland's extensive injury list, Nikola Jokić and the Nuggets are poised for a dominant performance, making healthy Nuggets players strong DFS considerations.
