The Phoenix Suns will look to continue their dominance in the Western Conference when they meet the Denver Nuggets for their next NBA fixture tonight. Monty William’s men have done a brilliant job this year. A team that ended their season at 19-63 three years ago is on the verge of becoming the first team of the season to secure 60 wins. The Suns are on track to end their season with at least an 8-game lead over any other side in the current season.
The Denver Nuggets need to be well prepared when they welcome the mighty Suns at the Ball Arena. The boys must be confident after the team’s last home win against the Clippers. Nikola Jokic once again led his side from the front adding 30 points to his name. In the post-game conference, the team coach Michael Malone explained the importance of Jokic to his side and the need for the other players to step up as well. He said:
“Yes, Nikola is an MVP, but this team with nine games to go, needs everybody to step their game up down the stretch and alleviate some of the pressure that’s put on Nikola every night.”
Chris Paul is expected to make a comeback in the next game for the Suns. The Nuggets have a few injury concerns of players like Zeke Nnaji and Michael Porter Jr.
