The race to championship glory is finally here.
Starting this weekend, 20 of the NBA’s best will take the court as the 2025 NBA Playoffs get underway with first-round action. Among the first-round matchups is Nuggets vs. Clippers.
Sitting as the No. 4 seed, Denver (50-32) enters this series in search of its best basketball. The Nuggets went 4-3 during the last seven games of the season. They will look to protect home court a bit better than they did during the final stretch of the regular season, as two of those aforementioned three losses were in Denver.
On the opposite side of the court are the Clippers (50-32), who enter the 2025 NBA Playoffs with a great deal of momentum on their side. Los Angeles ended the regular season on an eight-game win streak.
