They were on a 6 game win streak before losing to the Magic.

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. They are lodged at the 5th spot in the NBA Standings for the Western Conference.

Jokic has had a record-breaking season and he is the engine that keeps the Nuggets ticking. His all-around offensive abilities allow him to be one of the most potent weapons and he is surely having an MVP-like campaign. Jokic is an excellent pick-up as the Super Player in the Dream11 NBA scenario.

He is averaging a stunning 2.6 SPG this month.

Michael Porter Jr.:
PPG: 16.5
RPG: 7.5
TPG: 1.1

Jamal Murray
PPG: 21.2
APG: 4.9
RPG: 3.9
SPG: 1.3

He has also crossed the 20 points mark in 7 of the last 8 games.
