The full read on the Nuggets
Written Fri Oct 30, before the Suns game.
Season so far
Denver is 2-2, with a 1-1 home record and a 1-1 road record. Both wins came against New Orleans, including an overtime comeback; the losses came against Oklahoma City and Golden State. Denver never trailed in its latest win after allowing 134 points to Golden State.
The read
Denver arrives in Phoenix at 2-2 after beating New Orleans 104-91. The Nuggets never trailed in that game. Nikola Jokic finished with 21 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists for his 200th regular-season triple-double. Jamal Murray added 23 points, while Aaron Gordon had 15 points and 11 rebounds.
Denver’s scoring has ranged from 84 to 141 points. The Nuggets erased a 23-point deficit to beat New Orleans in overtime behind Murray’s 42 points. The home loss to Golden State included 74 second-half points allowed. Both wins have come against the Pelicans.
David Adelman has kept DeMar DeRozan in a bench role despite the wing absences. The offseason addition scored 21 points against Golden State and is learning to work with both the starting core and the reserves. Trevon Brazile started the latest game and played 32 minutes. Marvin Bagley III and Tyus Jones also played reserve minutes.
Cameron Johnson and Alpha Diallo are questionable for tonight, while Spencer Jones and Julian Strawther remain out. Johnson’s projected starting spot depends on his ankle. Phoenix is without Mark Williams and has Oso Ighodaro questionable. Denver’s NBA Cup opener also counts in the regular-season standings.
