Nuggets vs Spurs Fantasy NBA: Denver Nuggets will come into this game after thrashing the Pistons behind a 27 points performance by Nikola Jokic. Meanwhile, the San Antonio Spurs will enter the game after suffering a loss to the Cavaliers despite a 20 points outing by DeMar DeRozan. More information about DEN vs SAS Dream11 will be given in this section.

Nuggets’ season: Denver has played some terrific basketball since March mostly because Nikola Jokic, their ace is now getting assistance from young Michael Porter Jr. and Jamal Murray. Nuggets look in terrific form and have a strong defensive and unit from Guard to Center spot. They acquired Aaron Gordon during the trade deadline and bolstered their Forward position. They are in the 4th spot in the NBA Standings for Western Conference and can pose a threat to elite teams during NBA Playoffs.

Spurs’ season: San Antonio’s campaign has derailed a little this month, and it can be calculated by their 9th position in NBA Western Conference, after being around 7th to 8th spot till March. While DeRozan has been a capable scorer, playmaker, and leader, the team is majorly young, and Keldon Johnson, Dejounte Murray, Lonnie Walker IV, and Derrick White are still figuring out the squad-based mentality to succeed in this league.
