Nuggets vs. Wizards Game Info
Denver Nuggets (15-12, 7-6 Away) at Washington Wizards (8-17, 4-9 Home)
Date: Wednesday, Feb. 17, 2021
Start Time: 8 p.m. EST
Venue: Capital One Arena — Washington D.C.
The Nuggets are dealing with multiple injuries right now, and that’s why they lost by double-digits to the Celtics last game. Gary Harris, Monte Morris, Paul Millsap, Will Barton and P.J. Dozier are all listed as questionable for tonight’s game. Surely, at least least one of these players will sit. The Wizards are coming off a big win against the Rockets in a game where Russell Westbrook played his first back-to-back of the season. With Ish Smith out again tonight, Westbrook should play minutes in the mid-30s. With both him and Bradley Beal on the floor for Washington, they are capable of competing with any team due to the amount of points they can score.
