The Denver Nuggets are on the road on Thursday night for Game 6 of their first-round series against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Thursday’s game is a massive one for both sides as the Nuggets look to clinch the series with a victory while the Clippers need to win to keep their season alive.
Of course, the Nuggets dominated Game 5 of the series on their home court on Tuesday night behind incredible performances from Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic.
Now, Denver will look to wrap up the series and advance to the second round where they will meet the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Ahead of Thursday’s game, Denver received some positive news regarding two of their key players.
Denver announced that both Russell Westbrook and Michael Porter Jr. will be available to play in Game 6 despite dealing with injuries.
For Westbrook, he was limited in Game 3 and then was sidelined for Game 4 due to right foot inflammation.
The former MVP was able to return for Game 5 on Tuesday where he had a great performance off the bench and he will now be available for the Nuggets in Game 6 despite being listed as probable before the game.
For Porter Jr., he was also listed as probable due to a left shoulder sprain that has bothered him throughout most of the series.
Despite this, Porter Jr. has not missed any time due to the injury and he will be a full go on Thursday night.
This is massive news for the Nuggets who will have their entire core available for Game 6 in Los Angeles as they try to close out the series with a victory.
Fans can catch Thursday’s Game 6 matchup between the Nuggets and Clippers from Los Angeles at 10:00 p.m. EST on TNT.
