194#lakers #nuggets #KiaTipOff23 #showtymeonpointsports \nDenver's title defense begins Tuesday.\n\nThere, they'll host a familiar foe at Ball Arena, the Los Angeles Lakers. Both teams, of course, met up in the 2023 Western Conference Finals, and Denver promptly sent Los Angeles home in a four-game sweep.\n\nOpening Night will begin with the Ring Night and Banner Raising ceremony, which you can read more about here. After that, the ball will be tipped and Denver's 2023-24 season is officially underway.\n\nThere's a lot to look forward to in the big rematch, but first, a look at the injury report.\n\nINJURY REPORT\n\nLos Angeles:\nJalen Hood-Schifino — OUT (Right Patella Contusion)\nJarred Vanderbilt — OUT (Left Heel Soreness)\nColin Castleton — OUT (G-League Assignment)\nAlex Fudge — OUT (G-League Assignment)\nD'Moi Hodge — OUT (G-League Assignment)\n\nDenver:\nVlatko Čančar — OUT (Left Knee Surgery)\nJay Huff — OUT (Right Rib Fracture)\nMichael Porter Jr. — PROBABLE (Left Ankle Sprain)\n\nLos Angeles had a busy offseason, which we wrote about in the second edition of our offseason series, 'Matchups.' General manager Rob Pelinka revamped the Lakers' roster across the board by bringing in newcomers Gabe Vincent, Christian Wood, Taurean Prince, Jaxxon Hayes, Cam Reddish, Jalen Hood-Schifino, and Maxwell Lewis.\n\nPrince had an excellent preseason for the Lakers and hit 45.8 percent of his three-pointers in five games. Hayes was also a standout for Los Angeles as a play-finisher and connected on a ridiculous 85.7 percent of his shots. Overall, the Lakers went 2-4 in the preseason.\n\nMatchups between the Lakers and Nuggets are always must-watch, besides the obvious caveats of existing playoff history and this being Opening Night. Nikola Jokić and Anthony Davis are two of the best big men in the NBA, but Jokić appeared extremely comfortable the last time these two stars saw each other in the Conference Finals. Jokić averaged 12.8 points and 6.3 assists on 54.1 shooting from the field and 55.6 percent from three when guarded by Davis in the series sweep.\n\nOn the flip side of things, Jokić did an excellent job defending Davis. Davis shot 47.3 percent versus Jokić in the Conference Finals, almost 5 percentage points lower than the 52 percent shooting he averaged for the rest of the postseason.\n\nLos Angeles also had zero answers for Jamal Murray, who averaged a preparatous 32.5 points in the series.\n\n#nba\n#nbalive\n#bostonceltics \n#boston \n#brooklynnets \n#brooklyn \n#newyorkknicks \n#newyork \n#philadelphia76ers \n#philadelphia \n#torontoraptors \n#toronto \n#chicagobulls \n#chicago \n#clevelandcavaliers \n#cleveland \n#detroitpistons \n#detroit \n#indianapacers \n#indian \n#indiana \n#milwaukeebucks \n#milwaukee \n#denvernuggets \n#minnesotatimberwolves \n#minnesota \n#oklahomacitythunder \n#oklahomacity \n#portlandtrailblazers \n#portland \n#utahjazz \n#utah \n#goldenstatewarriors \n#goldenstate \n#bostonceltics \n#losangelesclippers \n#losangeleslakers \n#losangeles \n#phoenixsuns \n#phoenix \n#sacramentokings \n#sacramento \n#atlantahawks \n#atlanta \n#charlottehornets \n#charlotte \n#miamiheat \n#miami \n#orlandomagic \n#orlando \n#washingtonwizards \n#washington \n#dallasmavericks \n#dallas \n#orlandomagic \n#orlando \n#houstonrockets \n#houston \n#memphisgrizzlies \n#memphis \n#neworleanspelicans \n#neworleans \n#sanantoniospurs \n#sanantonio \n#nbaallstar \n#nbaontnt \n#slovenia \n#serbia \n#pbafinals \n#gilaspilipinas \n#sanmiguel \n#ginebra \n#argentina \n#pilipinas \n#philippines \n#usa \n#canada \n#china \n#russia \n#ukraine \n#brazil \n#gilaspilipinas\n\nShowTyme Social Media:\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/ShowTymeMedia\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/showtymeonpoint/\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100076270525012\nDISCLAIMER - All clips property of the NBA.
