Denver @ Memphis

Memphis is a rugged, tough, defensive minded team.

More from Nuggets News

It can be exhausting playing them due to their physicality. However, the front-court match-up between both teams will be extremely exciting. Memphis will have their infamous big men in Randolph and Marc Gasol back while the Nuggets will work Faried, Jokic, and Nurkic into the rotation somehow.

However, the Nuggets youth and inexperience may get the best of them against this veteran filled Grizzlies team. This is a game that Denver will need to pull out. They should be able to run the floor, and hopefully Denver can capture a quick win in Memphis.

The Nuggets will lose a thriller by a final score of 85-84 falling to 2-5 on the year.
