Saturday, the Denver Nuggets play the Phoenix Suns for the second time this season. On Wednesday, the Suns beat Orlando in overtime while the Nuggets lost to the Spurs. Both teams play Friday in the front end of a back to back with Phoenix hosting OKC and Denver hosting the Spurs.
Last season, the Nuggets took two out of three games in the series and won the initial match this year. The Suns hold the all-time record having bested the Nuggets in 96 of their 172 matches.
Denver Nuggets
Despite owning an even road record the consecutive losses Denver suffered came on the road indicating the myriad of injuries may be taking a toll.
In fact, the Nuggets are .500 in their last eight games with all four losses coming away from home.

San Antonio’s defensive game plan was clear in their defeat of Denver; let anyone not named Nikola Jokic or Jamal Murray beat you.
It worked, as only two starters broke double-digit scoring (Juan Hernangomez: 27 and Torrey Craig: 10). Jokic took just five shots and the Spurs defense on Murray was stellar as the Canadian shot 4 of 19 from the field.
Perhaps the fatigue of carrying the short-handed team is catching up to Jokic and Murray.

Each of Will Barton, Isaiah Thomas, and Gary Harris are out due to hip issues with all three expected back early in the New Year.
In addition, Paul Millsap (toe fracture), Jarred Vanderbilt (foot surgery) and Michael Porter Jr. (back) remain out with Millsap due back in late January and the other two out indefinitely.
Phoenix Suns
Let’s just call Kelly Oubre the Suns’ good luck charm. The Suns are 2-2 since his arrival (3-2 if you count all games since the trade). Moreover, Phoenix has won five of their past seven games.
For the record that’s more victories than the Suns accumulated through their first 28 games (4).

The four-game win streak included the Celtics and Knicks on the road and home victories against the Mavericks and Timberwolves.
So what’s changed? Certainly, a healthy Devin Booker is key (averaging 30.6 points since his return). And, Deandre Ayton’s eight double-doubles in the last 10 games are also a factor.
NBA Betting Trends:
- Nuggets are 9-1 in last 10 head to head contests

- The over-under is 6-4 in team’s last 10 head to head matchups
Free Denver Nuggets vs. Phoenix Suns NBA Prediction:
The recent run of victories bodes well for Phoenix and the Nuggets are showing signs of fatigue, particularly on the road. To wit, six of the Nuggets losses came on the road against fast paced teams.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Nuggets outlast Suns.
Denver has played in four back to back sets and is 3-1 on the second night with the loss coming on the road in their most recent set. Phoenix has played five without a win on either night.
As much as I’d like to see the Suns winning ways continue, Denver even depleted has too many weapons.
