Season Series
Last season the teams split their two-game regular season series each winning at home. Philly holds the all-time edge of 53 victories in 96 contests versus the Nuggets.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Monday, January 15th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Tuesday, January 16th.
Denver Nuggets
Although they are winning the Nuggets aren’t playing their best ball which had their head coach noting that fact in post-game pressers. In fairness, the entire starting unit is listed on the injury report as either out or questionable.
The latter could be a bit of gamesmanship since Philly typically lists Joel Embiid as questionable when they play in Denver. In fact, Embiid hasn’t played at Ball Arena in three seasons with his last appearance on November 8, 2019.
Nuggets Stats
Denver ranks seventh offensively (118.6) and tied for 10th defensively (113.0) with a net differential of plus +5.5 which ranks fifth overall.
Despite their overall placement, the Nuggets aren’t as solid against the spread with an 18-22-1 record through 41 contests.
Nuggets Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, SG (questionable — neck)
- Aaron Gordon, PF (questionable — heel)
- Jamal Murray, PG (questionable — leg)
- Michael Porter Jr., SF (questionable — knee)
- Nikola Jokic, C (questionable— hip)
- Julian Strawther, SF (downgraded to OUT — knee)
- Vlatko Cancar, SF (OUT indefinitely— knee)
Philadelphia 76ers
Embiid was back on the court for the match against Houston after sitting the prior three games. He’s played in just three of the last 10 matches. Philly’s record in the seven losses was 3-4 proving his worth and perhaps pointing to the need to add more depth by the trade deadline.
In the match versus the Rockets, the big man looked rested and healthy registering a 41-point, 10 rebound double-double.
76ers Stats
Philly ranks fifth offensively (119.3) and third defensively (111.0) while possessing a net rating of plus +8.3 which ranks third overall.
The Sixers are one of the better bets against the spread emulating their win/loss results with a 25-13 record through 38 contests.
76ers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Mohamed Bamba, C (questionable — knee)
- Robert Covington, SF (questionable — knee)
- DeAnthony Melton, SG (OUT indefinitely —back)
- Kenneth Lofton Jr., PF (questionable — shoulder)

Free Denver Nuggets vs. Philadelphia 76ers NBA Prediction:
These squads are each sitting in the third seed entering this match. The Sixers are five games back of the first-place Celtics while the Nuggets trail the Wolves by a single game.
Both clubs possess strong home-court advantages with Philly 15-6 at Wells Fargo while Denver is 17-4 at Ball Arena. The Nuggets aren’t as successful on the road (11-9) but have the rest advantage.
The main concern is the Nuggets’ entire starting five is questionable for this match but hopefully it is just gamesmanship by Malone because the Embiid – Jokic matchup is worth the price of admission.
