Denver Nuggets and LA Clippers will face off on Tuesday night at the Ball Arena in Game 5 of this best-of-seven series. The Nuggets will be looking to maximize their home advantage this time around after losing Game 2 102-105 to give the Clippers an upper hand ahead of the double clash at Intuit Dome. The Clippers didn't disappoint in Game 3, routing the Nuggets 117-83 to take a 2-1 lead in this series. They came prepared for this playoff basketball clash with enough horseheads to disrupt Nikola Jokic's game at the foul line.
This partially worked, with the reigning three-time NBA MVP scoring 23 points, 13 assists, and 13 boards. James Harden was again phenomenal for LA, bagging 20 points, 9 assists, and 6 rebounds by halftime. Kawhi Leonard and Nick Powell also eclipsed the 20-point mark in Game 3. This result means the Clippers are staring at a possible Round 1 elimination, especially if they lose Game 4 on Saturday night.

Our LA Clippers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
Denver has a good history against the Clippers, so this thrilling series is far from over. The last time these two sides met in a postseason environment was in 2020, when the Nuggets recovered from a 3-1 deficit to eliminate the Clippers. They boast the best basketball player in the world right now, who could easily make a difference in this series, especially in those home assignments.
However, the Clippers are currently playing one of the best basketball games and have their deadly weapons in Leonard, Harden, Powell, and Zubac. These four can easily score 20+ points, meaning they have more firepower than the Nuggets. We expect them to at least cover the spread.
Our prediction for Denver Nuggets vs LA Clippers: Denver Nuggets for the win.
