The Denver Nuggets face the Philadelphia 76ers in this NBA matchup at Xfinity Mobile Arena on Monday night.
How to Watch Nuggets vs 76ers
The Philadelphia 76ers (19-14) return home on a three-game winning streak as they host the Denver Nuggets (23-12) at Xfinity Mobile Arena in a marquee Eastern versus Western Conference matchup.
Philadelphia has been clicking offensively behind Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid, and rising rookie VJ Edgecombe, and they've looked especially solid defending at home this season. The Nuggets are missing their superstar Nikola Jokic due to a knee injury that will sideline him for several weeks, leaving Denver to rely on Jamal Murray and other role players to carry the offensive load.
For Denver, the challenge is maximizing its offense without Jokic while trying to stay competitive against a hot 76ers squad. The Nuggets have several rotation players on the injury report, raising concerns about their depth. Still, Jamal Murray's playmaking and scoring could keep Denver in striking distance if he gets going early.
Philadelphia's home court advantage and healthier roster balance should help them control tempo and exploit Denver's weakened interior. However, Denver's resilience and road experience mean this game could stay competitive into the fourth quarter. Expect the 76ers to look to spread the floor and attack inside, while the Nuggets try to find secondary scoring from players like Peyton Watson and Tim Hardaway Jr. to offset missing pieces.
This is a great NBA matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
