Denver Nuggets (28-18) head to Madison Square Garden to face the New York Knicks (31-16) in the NBA‘s crucial weekday matchup. The Knicks are on a four-game winning streak and had a 27-point blowout win over the Nuggets in previous meeting.

Denver Nuggets’ struggle in defense has been a big concern. Nikola Jokic produced a triple-double but Denver were routed by Chicago Bulls on Monday. It proved that great offense cannot help Denver in regular season.

Both teams are 7-3 in their last ten, and New York are standing one game behind the Celtics in the East. Knicks are averaging 143 points on current five-game homestand and enter the fixture with a 143-106 win over Memphis Grizzlies. New York have a solid opportunity to sweep the season-series against Denver.

Let’s figure out the injuries from each side and their impact on the clash.
