How to watch Spurs vs Denver Nuggets Live Today

The Denver Nuggets faced early-season struggles, starting with an 11-10 record despite the brilliance of three-time MVP Nikola Jokic. However, the team has turned things around, winning 8 of their last 11 games, including a New Year’s Day victory over the Atlanta Hawks.

As they prepare to face the San Antonio Spurs for the first time this season, Denver (19-13) relies heavily on Jokic, who is making a strong case for a fourth MVP award. Jokic is averaging career-highs in points (30.7 per game) and efficiency, with standout performances such as shooting 49% from three-point range. Against the Spurs' Victor Wembanyama-led squad, Jokic has averaged 33.5 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists in their prior matchups.

The Spurs (17-16) enter 2025 aiming to stay in the playoff conversation, while Denver looks to solidify its standing in the Western Conference. Key injuries for the game include Jeremy Sochan (Spurs), and Aaron Gordon and Vlatko Cancar (Nuggets).

Jamal Murray, Denver’s second star alongside Nikola Jokic, faced scrutiny after a quiet playoff series against Minnesota last year and the team’s slow start this season. However, he has rebounded strongly, scoring 20+ points in 8 of his last 10 games while shooting 43% from three. Despite Murray's resurgence, head coach Michael Malone emphasized the team’s need for defensive improvement, as they allowed an average of 120 points per game in December.

Denver's offense remains elite, ranked 4th in the league with a 118.4 Offensive Rating, presenting a major challenge for opponents like the Spurs. Meanwhile, Russell Westbrook has emerged as a feel-good story this season, thriving on his sixth team. His energy and playmaking have revitalized Denver at times, culminating in a shared triple-double with Jokic during their December 30th win against Utah.
