Nuggets Prep for Preseason Showdown Against Clippers on Sunday Night

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — The Denver Nuggets are gearing up for a preseason game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday night. After a recent win over the Toronto Raptors, the Nuggets look to capitalize on their momentum as they face the Clippers, a rematch of last season’s thrilling playoff series.

Denver’s key players, including Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Christian Braun, delivered standout performances in their last outing. The Nuggets will benefit from the return of Aaron Gordon, who missed the previous game due to maintenance reasons. With no other injuries reported, Denver hopes to field a strong lineup.

The Clippers are approaching the game with injury concerns, particularly regarding Bradley Beal and Bogdan Bogdanovic. Beal, a recent addition to the team, has yet to play due to a knee injury, while Bogdanovic left their preseason opener early with back soreness. Both players are doubtful for Sunday’s matchup.

This contest is significant for the Clippers as it marks their preseason debut and serves as an opportunity to avenge last season’s playoff elimination by the Nuggets. Despite the stakes, both teams are focused on developing new strategies and building chemistry early in the season.

The Nuggets and Clippers are set to tip off at 9:30 p.m. ET at Intuit Dome, and fans can watch the matchup live on ESPN. With both teams adjusting their lineups, expectations are high for an exciting game in Los Angeles.
