Nuggets Look To Stay Strong At Home
The Denver Nuggets play host to the San Antonio Spurs at Ball Arena on Tuesday evening.

The Nuggets (52-23) put an end to a two-game slide with a win in their last outing. They will look to stay on track as they face the fifth and final game of a home stand with an opportunity to improve on their, 30-8, home record. Nikola Jokic (hip) continues to lead the team, averaging 27.3 points, 12.0 rebounds, 9.8 assists and 2.0 steals over four games since his last absence, and he is listed as probable for action. Micheal Porter averages 16.9 points, 7.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists, while Reggie Jackson is averaging 10.2 points, 1.9 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game. The Nuggets average 114.6 points per game, but they hold opponents to an average of 109.8 points per game, which is seventh fewest in the league. Aaron Gordon (foot) is listed as probable for action, while Jamal Murray (knee) is listed as questionable to play.

Meanwhile, the Spurs (18-57) saw a three-game win streak come to an end in their last game but they hope to get back on track as they kick off a two-game road trip with a chance to add to their, 8-29, road record. Victor Wembanyama continues to lead the squad, averaging 21.2 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 3.4 blocks per game. Devin Vassell averages 19.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.1 steals, while Jeremy Sochan is averaging 11.6 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game. The Spurs average 112.2 points per game, but they give up an average of 119.2 points per game, which is sixth-most in the league. Keldon Johnson (foot) and Dominick Barlow (knee) will be sidelined.
