Through 3 Quarters
Their last head-to-head December was close, and so far it looks like that’s how the Denver Nuggets and the Los Angeles Clippers will finish this one. After three quarters neither squad has the matchup in the bag, but Denver leads 66-62.
The Nuggets have been riding high on the performance of center Nikola Jokic, who has 15 points and four assists in addition to nine boards. A double-double would be Jokic’s ninth in a row.
Los Angeles hasn’t had any offensive standouts so far with all players held to 13 points or fewer.
Los Angeles hasn’t lost 90% of the games in which they were down heading into the final period this season, so a victory here would be refreshing.

Denver @ Los Angeles
Current Records: Denver 20-18; Los Angeles 20-21
What to Know
The Los Angeles Clippers haven’t won a matchup against the Denver Nuggets since Dec. 25 of 2020, but they’ll be looking to end the drought on Tuesday. The Clippers will play host again and welcome Denver to Crypto.com Arena, where tip-off is scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET. The neutral point spread forecasts a close one for these two.
While not quite a landslide, the game between Los Angeles and the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday was still a pretty decisive one as Los Angeles wrapped it up with a 106-93 win at home. Los Angeles’ small forward Amir Coffey filled up the stat sheet, shooting 5-for-8 from downtown and finishing with 21 points and five boards.
Meanwhile, Denver sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 99-95 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday. The team accrued 61 points in the first half and coasted on those for the victory. Center Nikola Jokic (22 points) and point guard Austin Rivers (22 points) were the top scorers for the Nuggets. Austin Rivers’ performance made up for a slower contest against the Sacramento Kings last week. Rivers’ points were the most he has had all year.
Their wins bumped the Clippers to 20-21 and Denver to 20-18. Watch the matchup and check back on CBS Sports to find out who keeps up the positive energy and who hits a stumbling block.
