Nuggets vs Pelicans Fantasy NBA: The Denver Nuggets will enter the contest after beating the Bulls in an Overtime contest behind 34 points performances by Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.

More details about DEN vs NOP Dream11 will be related here.

Nuggets’ season: Denver began the season on a slow note but has managed to muster some wins since February courtesy of some elite play by Nikola Jokic, Michael Porter, and Jamal Murray. They are in great shape as Michael has hit strides for a couple of months and the roster has come along well recently.

Pelicans’ season: Pelicans harbor one of the most exciting players in the league, Zion Williamson. Williamson and Brandon Ingram form a terrific pair in the Forward spots but they still lack the talent around them to compete at the highest level. New Orleans has a losing record and they have a long road ahead if they want to make the playoffs.
