In a showdown between the Nuggets and Pelicans, the absence of key players like Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram may tip the scales in favor of the Nuggets. Nikola Jokic’s all-around dominance and the Nuggets’ depth could prove too much for the injury-plagued Pelicans to handle. Look for Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. to step up and secure a victory for Denver on the road. With the Pelicans missing key pieces, the Nuggets have the edge in this matchup.
