Denver Nuggets Preview
Although the Denver Nuggets had a fairly successful run of games last week, they have now endured consecutive losses.
The loss against the Raptors was a fairly close matchup for most of the game, with Denver heading into the fourth quarter with a six-point lead. Unfortunately, their poor execution meant they were outscored in the fourth quarter by 18 points.
Although Nikola Jokic had another tremendous performance, the Nuggets only saw three other players notch double-digit scoring to complement their superstar.
Denver Nuggets Predicted Lineup
G - Monte Morris | G - Davon Reed | F - Will Barton | F - Jeff Green | C - Nikola Jokic.
Philadelphia 76ers Preview
Coming off a win against the Orlando Magic, the Philadelphia 76ers notched up their third win in five games. However, their win against Orlando was anything but impressive.
With a lineup consisting of superstar duo Joel Embiid and James Harden, the 76ers are one of the best teams in the league. As an offensive powerhouse also featuring Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris, Philadelphia disappointed down the stretch against Orlando.
After fighting back from a 15-point deficit, the 76ers closed the gap in the fourth quarter. With over three minutes remaining, both teams endured a scoring drought as the game went to OT. Although Philadelphia won, they need to improve their performance.
Philadelphia 76ers Predicted Lineup
G - Tyrese Maxey | G - James Harden | F - Matisse Thybulle | F - Tobias Harris | C - Joel Embiid.

Nuggets vs 76ers Match Prediction
The Philadelphia 76ers' matchup at home against the Denver Nuggets may not be as cut and dry as it appears to be. Although the 76ers homecourt advantage puts them in a good position to win, the Nuggets are an incredibly tenacious team.
With a 20-15 away record, Denver has fared well on the road. Considering their 1-0 lead against the 76ers in their season series, Denver has seen Jokic get the better of Embiid before.
Harden is a major boost to Philadelphia's roster, but Denver could look to take advantage of the 76ers' stagnating offense.
While the game could go either way, it is a lot difficult to bet against the 76ers on their home floor.
