DEN vs MIA Dream11: The Miami Heat hot the road for their next scrimmage against one of the best teams in entire NBA, Denver Nuggets. But the visitor will fancy their chances, both because of their good form and also the inconsistency the Nuggets have shown in the last few games. All in all, it’s going to be a fascinating battle when Nuggets open Pepsi Center for the visiting Miami Heat.
In the last match, Heat completely dominated the mighty Houston Rockets right from the off. In fact, Heat were so good, or the Rockets were so poor, that the match was over in the first quarter itself when Jimmy Butler and Co. outscored James Harden’s team by 46-14.
Duncan Robinson topped the scoring charts with 23 points, while Jimmy Butler (18 points, 9 assists and 7 rebounds), Meyers Leonard (21 points), together with 2nd unit star Tyler Herro, Goran Dragic and James Johnson all had a good game.
Heat now sit at the top of Eastern Conference after winning five times in six games.
Denver Nuggets also had a win in the last game as they overpowered Orlando Magic 91-87 on the road. That win ended a two-game skid for the Nuggets.

Captain options | Fantasy Picks:
Nikola Jokic: Who else than Nuggets’ big man Nikola Jokic. The points are a guarantee, rebounds are like his day-to-day job, while his passing is right up there with the best.
Jimmy Butler: The 30-year-old is the biggest star on Miami Heat’s roster this season. The 30-year-old is averaging 14.7 points per game.
Duncan Robinson: Had his season-high 23 points in the last game and that performance should give him a world of confidence going into the season.
Jamal Murray: The 22-year-old was Nuggets’ 2nd best player last season by some stretch and it continues to be the case as he averages 18.5 points per game in the current season.
While players such as Goran Dragic, Paul Millsap and Bam Adebayo are in good form and should be considered.
