Nuggets and Lakers vie for playoff home-court advantage

The Denver Nuggets will play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. Both teams are fighting for home-court advantage in the first round of the NBA playoffs. The Nuggets have a record of 44 wins and 25 losses, while the Lakers have 42 wins and 25 losses. The Nuggets have been inconsistent recently, winning some games and losing others. In their last game, they beat the Golden State Warriors 114-105. Key players Aaron Gordon and Russell Westbrook stepped up, especially with Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray missing from the lineup. The Lakers are facing challenges due to injuries. LeBron James is not expected to play for at least another week. However, the team has been doing well lately, winning their last two games against the Phoenix Suns and San Antonio Spurs. Luka Doncic and Rui Hachimura may join the lineup for the game against the Nuggets. This matchup is important, as the Nuggets have won two of the three games they played against the Lakers this season. This will be their final meeting of the regular season.
