The thrilling first-round series between the Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers in the NBA Playoffs 2025 has reached its final destination. It is the only series apart from the one between Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors to have reached the decisive Game 7. The winner will secure a berth against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the next round, whereas the loser will have to face a disappointing exit.
