the Los Angeles Lakers
In the current season, the Lakers have not particularly impressed. For a considerable period, the team even fell outside the playing zone, but in the 2024 season they managed to start winning consistently, not without a bit of nervousness. In a recent game against the Clippers, the Lakers managed to overcome a -21 deficit and earned a crucial victory. A notable performance was delivered by the timeless LeBron James. Interestingly, despite their lowly ninth place finish in the Western Conference standings, the Lakers boast a high shooting percentage of 49.6, which ranks them third in the league.
Denver Nuggets
The reigning champions of the National Basketball Association can boast of quite decent results this season. The team’s gameplay and performance match well with the club’s level and fans’ expectations. In the current 60 regular championship games, the Nuggets have won 41 times and are only slightly behind Minnesota and Oklahoma.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history
- The Lakers have won their last four home games.
- Denver is on a five-game winning streak.
- The last seven head-to-head meetings between these teams have been won by the Nuggets.
