Key Storylines

The Nuggets enter the game at 13–5 overall and are 11–4 against Western Conference opponents. They have won six straight on the road, a streak they will try to extend in hostile territory here.
The Suns sit at 12–8 and 11–7 in conference play. Phoenix ranks among the better defensive teams in the league, allowing only 113.2 points per game and holding opponents to roughly 46.5% shooting.
Offensively, Denver remains a juggernaut led by Nikola Jokic. He’s averaging 29.1 points, 12.6 rebounds, and 11 assists per game this season. On top of that, their supporting cast has been consistent enough to give Denver balance.
For Phoenix, Devin Booker is the focal point, putting up 25.8 points and 6.9 assists per contest. The Suns’ 3-point shooting and perimeter discipline will be key if they hope to slow Denver’s half-court sets.
This is the second game of a back-to-back for both teams, who will look to overcome their fatigue concerns to pick up a win in this contest.
