This includes a blowout 118-87 win over the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night. Donovan Mitchell (19 points, five rebounds, seven assists) and Evan Mobley (19 points and 10 rebounds) headlined a scoring effort in which four starters reached double figures. Cleveland\u2019s defense held Washington to 38.6 percent shooting overall and 15.4 percent from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"nuggets-seek-to-continue-recent-success\">Nuggets Seek To Continue Recent Success<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Nuggets have gone 4-5 following a 7-3 start. However, they enter this tilt on the heels of a 119-115 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night. In that contest, Nikola Jokic led the way with 38 points, 10 rebounds, six assists, and five steals. Michael Porter Jr. added 22 points and seven boards for a Nuggets team where every starter reached double figures.&nbsp; Trailing 104-94 in the fourth quarter, Denver concluded the game on a 25-11 run, extending its winning streak over Golden State to eight games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cavaliers-vs-nuggets-prediction-cavaliers-win-a-close-one\">Cavaliers vs Nuggets Prediction: Cavaliers Win A Close One<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite their come-from-behind win over Golden State, the Nuggets have struggled with stringing together victories over their last nine contests. Conversely, the Cavaliers have the best record in the association and posted 12 wins in 13 home games this season. With that in mind, look for Cleveland to squeak by Denver in what should be a competitive contest.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of the games on Thursday night&#8217;s NBA slate features the Cleveland Cavaliers taking on the Denver Nuggets.
