Nuggets’ Secret Weapon Unleashed as Jokic Returns: Can Christian Braun Tip the Scales Against Thunder?
Sunday night’s showdown at the Ball Arena is shaping up to be more than just another Western Conference clash – it’s a thrilling sequel to last year’s intense Nuggets-Thunder semifinal duel that stretched to seven games. But here’s a brain teaser: can Denver keep its edge without Christian Braun, who’s still hobbling with that pesky left ankle sprain? His doubtful tag is sort of a silver lining amid the setbacks, signaling that his comeback might be just around the bend. Meanwhile, the Nuggets are leaning on Nikola Jokic, fresh off a knee injury, to carry the torch, even as Cameron Johnson and Aaron Gordon watch from the sidelines. On the other side, Oklahoma City is juggling its own injury woes, with Alex Caruso and a couple of others sidelined. This isn’t just about who plays—it’s about who rises. So, will Denver fend off the Thunder’s challenge once again, or is another upset brewing? Buckle up, because tipoff’s at 9:30 pm ET, and this one promises fireworks. LEARN MORE
