The Denver Nuggets and Phoenix Suns face off in an incredibly pivotal Game 3 that could potentially have the Suns go down 3-0. It's a rare battle of two teams almost being fully healthy that fans should appreciate.

The Nuggets do not have a single player listed on their injury report. The entire team is fully healthy, which is a far cry from how they were the last two seasons.

The Phoenix Suns only have one player listed on their injury report - Chris Paul. Paul has officially been listed as out with a left groin strain that occurred in Game 2. Outside of Paul, the Suns aren't missing a single player on their roster as well. Granted, Devin Booker and Kevin Durant are probably exhausted from all the heavy minutes they've been playing all playoffs, but that's not an injury.

Being in this position has to be a very sweet moment for the Denver Nuggets. Two years ago, they were incredibly shorthanded as they faced off against the Suns in the NBA Playoffs. There was the infamous Suns in 4 moment in the series and the fans have had bad blood ever since. Despite that, the Nuggets can not get too ahead of themselves right now. Winning this game and only this game is what matters the most. Putting the Phoenix Suns in a 3-0 hole should be the only thing that Denver Nuggets care about right now.

The Denver Nuggets and Phoenix Suns face off at 10:00 pm ET tonight.
