The Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers are preparing for an NBA preseason matchup on Tuesday, October 17th. This game will be the fourth out of five preseason games for the Nuggets, who currently hold a 2-1 record. On the other hand, the Clippers have a record of 1-1 and will be playing in their third of four preseason contests.
Heading into Tuesday’s game, both teams are expected to have their top players available. For Denver, guards Christian Braun (calf) and Reggie Jackson (rest), forward Michael Porter Jr. (ankle), and centers Jay Huff (ribs) and DeAndre Jordan (rest) are listed as questionable. Meanwhile, forward Vlatko Cancar (knee) is listed as out.
The LA Clippers’ injury report lists guard Brandon Boston Jr. (knee) as out for the game. However, considering that the game is an inconsequential preseason matchup between two veteran-heavy teams, it is possible that more players will be rested closer to game time.
Both teams are looking to test their strengths and identify weaknesses during the preseason before the regular season begins. The outcomes of these games may not be as impactful as regular-season matches, but it sets the tone for the team’s performance throughout the season.
Fans of both the Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers will be closely watching this upcoming preseason match, as it will provide a glimpse of what to expect from each team for the upcoming regular season. The game is sure to be exciting, with each team aiming to secure a win and gain momentum going into the season.
