DEN vs NOP Dream11 Match Prediction

 

DEN vs NOP Dream11: Denver Nuggets will be looking for their 8tj consecutive win when they host New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA at Pepsi Center, on Thursday morning (IST). The Nuggets are second in the West, only a few games behind the Los Angeles Lakers. This is remarkable considering the Lakers looked running away with the Western Conference summit till only last week. But Lakers’ three straight defeats, together with Nuggets’ own imperious run, has shrunk the gap to more than manageable zones.
New Orleans Pelicans, on the other hand, are second from the bottom but are fresh off winning two times in the last three games. They beat Portland Trail Blazers 94-102 in the last game, led by Brandon Ingram and Derrick Favors, who both had double-doubles.
