Denver Nuggets vs LA Clippers 10/12/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

The Denver Nuggets will face off against the LA Clippers in NBA action at Toyota Arena, Ontario, CA, on Wednesday, October 12, 2022, at 10:30 PM EDT.

The Denver Nuggets are heading into this game looking for their 2nd win of the preseason and are 1-2 following their 107-105 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Monday.

Ish Smith led Denver in the scoring department with 17 points while Michael Porter Jr played 23 minutes and scored 9 points, shooting only 2-for-11.

Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Michael Porter Jr will start the season healthy for the Nuggets and are expected to be joined by Aaron Gordon and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to form the starting five for the team.

Ish Smith, Jeff Green, Bruce Brown, and Bones Hyland are the first players off the bench and played well at guard last season to help make up for the loss of Monte Morris.

Nikola Jokic is one of the best players. Last season, he had to carry the majority of the load. Jokic is a creative Center who can score off-the-dribble and also pull down big boards, and also is perhaps the best playmaker among the bigs.

John led the Clippers in the scoring department with 20 points while Kawhi Leonard played 17 minutes and scored 8 points.
