The Denver Nuggets return home looking to bounce back after a tough overtime loss to Golden State in their opener. Nikola Jokic will once again be the focal point, orchestrating Denver’s offense with his passing and inside scoring, while Jamal Murray provides the perimeter punch. The Nuggets don’t want to fall into an early 0–2 hole, so expect them to come out with urgency in front of their home crowd.
The Phoenix Suns, meanwhile, come in at 1–1 after splitting their first two games. They rallied from 20 points down to beat Sacramento 120–116 in their opener, with Devin Booker scoring 31 and Dillon Brooks adding 22 in Jordan Ott’s debut as head coach.
Two nights later, they fell to the Clippers on the road, with Booker again leading the charge. The Suns showed strength on the glass in both outings, and that rebounding edge could be a key factor against Denver’s frontcourt. With the Nuggets favored but Phoenix carrying an early fight, this matchup sets up as a strong Western Conference test for both sides.
Here is a complete breakdown of the Nuggets vs Suns injury report with the latest updates, plus projected starting lineups for both teams.
