What you need to know about the Nuggets
The Nuggets bagged a 114-104 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers this past Friday. It was another big night for Denver’s power forward Aaron Gordon, who had 29 points in addition to seven boards. Shooting guard Jamal Murray added 21 points and 9 assists in the win.
Two-time reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokic has seen his numbers dip a bit in 2022-23, but he is in the midst of another outstanding season for the Nuggets. The 27-year-old center is averaging 22.4 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 8.8 assists per game thus far. Against the Clippers, Jokic scored 19 points, grabbed 13 rebounds, and dished out 6 assists in 32 minutes.
What you need to know about the Rockets
Meanwhile, while not quite a landslide, the game between the Rockets and the Oklahoma City Thunder this past Saturday was still a pretty decisive one as Houston wrapped it up with a 118-105 win at home. Houston can attribute much of their success to center Alperen Sengun, who dropped a double-double on 21 points and 19 rebounds along with seven dimes.
Allowing an average of 115.7 points per game, Houston hasn’t exactly asserted themselves on the defensive end. That said, the Rockets are a young, rebuilding team with enough talent to sneak up on their opponents on any given night. Guards Kevin Porter Jr. (19.1 points, 6.1 assists, 5.9 rebounds per game) and Jalen Green (21.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game) lead the way for Houston.
