The San Antonio Spurs are looking to secure their second consecutive victory as they face off against the Denver Nuggets in a back-to-back series. The Spurs, with a record of 17-16, are hoping to break a losing streak in Denver, where they haven't won since April 2022. Coming off a strong home win against the LA Clippers, the Spurs have shown resilience, winning two of their last three games.

On the other hand, the Nuggets, standing at 19-13, are riding a three-game winning streak, showcasing their offensive prowess by scoring over 130 points in each of those contests. This matchup is particularly exciting as it features two of the league's premier big men, Nikola Jokic and Victor Wembanyama, both leading their respective teams in key statistical categories.

However, both teams are dealing with injuries, with the Spurs missing Jeremy Sochan and the Nuggets without Aaron Gordon. The Nuggets are favored by 6.5 points, and ESPN Analytics gives them a 59.9 percent chance of winning. The game is set to tip off at 8 p.m. CT at Bell Arena, with coverage provided by San Antonio Spurs on Sports Illustrated.
