The Indiana Pacers (46-31) visit the Denver Nuggets (47-31) on Sunday, April 6, 2025, at the Ball Arena.

This is the second time that the Pacers will forge battle against the Nuggets this season. In their first matchup last February 24, the Nuggets hacked out a 125-116 victory against the Pacers. Six Nuggets players scored in double digits in that win. 

However, things haven't been good at the Nuggets camp lately. They are currently on a three-game skid, including a surprising defeat at the hands of the short-handed San Antonio Spurs. With only four games left before the playoffs, the Nuggets aren't exactly in their best form.

In the last three games, the Nuggets have regressed both in offensive rating (112.3) and defensive rating (119.4). Moreover, star guard Jamal Murray is currently nursing a hamstring injury, and is listed as questionable in the Pacers match. Murray has already missed the team's last four games.

On the other end, the Pacers will also miss the services of All-Star forward Pascal Siakam due to right elbow bursitis. That strips Indiana of Siakam's 20.3 points and 6.9 rebounds per contest.

Still, the Pacers have what it takes to keep with Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets. They're on a roll, having won four of their last four games.
