Denver Nuggets will lock horns against Phoenix Suns in NBA 2021-22 on Friday, 25 March 2022 at 06:30 AM IST

• The Suns looked formidable in their 125-116 win against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Although they have clinched a playoff spot, the Suns havent taken their foot off the pedal, improving to 59-14 on the season.
• The Denver Nuggets, meanwhile, are coming off a 127-115 win against the LA Clippers. By snapping a two-game losing streak, the sixth-place Nuggets recorded improved to 43-30 on the season.
• With the season-series between the Suns and Nuggets tied at 1-1, the game on Thursday will be a tiebreaker.

Phoenix Suns

• Although the Suns faced a major setback with Chris Pauls injury before the All-Star break, they have played well without their primary point guard.
• With their latest win against the Timberwolves, the Suns have extended their winning streak to six games. Although most of their wins in this run have been comfortable, their last two outings on the road were close.
• The first half against Minnesota saw the Suns trailing due to some poor defensive execution. A second-half push led by Deandre Ayton and Devin Booker saw Phoenix through to a win on the night.

Denver Nuggets

• The Denver Nuggets continue to impress despite being plagued by injuries. They are faring well, thanks to the top-notch performances of their big man Nikola Jokic; the Nuggets have won three of their last five games.
• Considering the absence of Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. due to injury, Jokic has had to carry a huge burden for Denver this season. Facilitating the offense while also taking care of scoring, the Serb has exceeded expectations as he has put on another MVP-caliber performance.
• The win against the Clippers was relatively comfortable as Denver led for most of the game. With consistent contributions from across the board, the Nuggets saw Jokic lead the charge with 30 points. Meanwhile, six other players - including two off the bench - recorded double-digit scoring.
