Nuggets Analysis: Looking to break their 3-game losing streak

The Denver Nuggets, who have lost their previous 3 matches and are seeking an opportunity to rebound after losing to the Kings 102-98, have bungled their approach to the All-Star break. With 25 points and 15 boards, Aaron Gordon led the way. Michael Porter Jr. followed with 19 points, and Nikola Jokic finished with 15 points as well as 8 assists. The Nuggets held the Kings in check at the start to take a 16-point advantage, but they were unable to sustain that pressure and collapsed in the second half, allowing the Kings to knock them down in an unsatisfactory finish. As a whole, they shot only 39% of their shots from the floor and 9 of 26 from three. Not a single bench player scored over 8 points. By his standards, Jokic’s performance was subdued; he only scored 15 points on 6 of his 17 field goal attempts.

 

Wizards Analysis: 1 game away from being the worst squad in the league

The Washington Wizards are in a terrible slump, having lost 14 of their previous 16 games overall. They will be looking to snap an 8-game losing streak after losing their most recent game on their travels, 133-126, to the Pelicans before the All-Star break. With 43 points and 15 boards on 13 of 24 shots, Deni Avdija led the squad. Jordan Poole scored 19 points and 6 assists, and Corey Kispert contributed 20 points and 6 assists from the bench. The Wizards showed a lot of tenacity in rallying from a 20-point hole, shooting 47% from the floor and 21 of 45 from three-point range overall. However, they gave up 34 points during the fourth quarter, which ultimately let the Pelicans win.
