Trail Blazers Vs Nuggets: How to Watch, Odds, Predictions, And More
As the Blazers are set to square off against the reigning NBA Champion Denver Nuggets, they'll look to overcome their 20.5 game discrepancy in the standings.
Coming off the All-Star break, both teams should be well-rested as they'll enter their 2nd of four matchups against one another this season.
In their most first matchup a couple of weeks ago, Denver came away with a 120-108 victory, but for Portland, rookie Scoot Henderson began to highlight what made him the 3rd overall pick, finishing with 30 points off the bench.
Tonight, expect a heavier dose of Scoot as head coach Chauncey Billups has seemingly realized what he has in him, upping his minutes.
For Denver, it's much of the same, but that's what has made them so dominant. Their elite starting 5 will look to make a second consecutive title run this spring.
Here's how to watch tonight's matchup:
Date: February 23, 2024
Location: Moda Center, Portland, OR
Local TV: Root Sports/Root Sports Plus, Altitude
Radio: SiriusXM, Rip City Radio 620, Altitude Sports Radio 92.5 FM
Expect Denver, who should enter as heavy favorites, to come away with a win. Despite Portland's young talent, Denver's size, experience, and precision should lead to wins as they seemingly always do.
That being said, seeing if Scoot Henderson can keep this up is a major storyline, as post All-Star break, teams have even more film on the rising young guard.
