Denver Nuggets (30-19) will host New Orleans Pelicans (12-37) on Wednesday night in a Western Conference matchup. The Nuggets are hanging on in the Conference race, staying 9.0 games behind the Thunder and 3.0 games behind the Grizzlies in the second spot. They are on a three-game winning run after defeating the 76ers, Hornets, and Pelicans in their last assignments. The Nuggets will be eager to make it four straight wins and a double against the Pelicans at the same venue on Wednesday. The Pelicans have looked out of depth recently after giving up four of their last 10 matches. Even worse, they are on a six-game skid ahead of their assignment at the Ball Arena. They must find a winning formula.
