The Denver Nuggets are coming off a 105-122 win over the Phoenix Suns, extending their unbeaten run to six games. Against the Suns, Jamal Murray scored 30 points and had 5 assists, while Nikola Jokic recorded yet another double-double with 26 points and 11 rebounds. Michael Porter Jr. missed the game against the Suns due to a hamstring injury and is listed as questionable against the Trail Blazers, while Russell Westbrook is ruled out until February 20th due to a hamstring injury. In Westbrook’s absence, Christian Braun has an extended role on the offensive end, where he has scored over 15 points in three consecutive games. Aaron Gordon hasn’t scored at his usual best since his return from injury, but he has been solid with his playmaking, dishing out 4 or more assists in the last three games.
The Trail Blazers’ six-match unbeaten run ended with a 114-98, 16-point loss against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It was a tough night for the Trail Blazers; their offense struggled, shooting 40.2% from the field and only 20% from long range. They also committed too many fouls, allowing the Timberwolves numerous free throw attempts, and had a high number of turnovers. Anfernee Simons top-scored with 21 points, while Jerami Grant scored 14. Other than these two players, none of the starters scored more than 8 points. The Trail Blazers will look to reassess their shooting and come back stronger against the Nuggets. Portland has had a decent record in away games, winning three of their last five. They have scored an average of 105.6 points per game offensively and allowed 102.8 points per game defensively in away games.
