NBA 2018-19: 5 top teams of the week - week 22

4. Denver Nuggets:

Denver Nuggets are playing really well this week

The Denver Nuggets have been one of the best teams this season, giving the top seed Golden State Warriors a run for their money. They have performed really well this week too, with a 46-22 record and are currently 2nd in the Western Conference, just 1 game behind the Warriors.

They have won just 6 of their last 10 matches but have managed to win their last 3 matches in a row. The Nuggets won all 3 of their matches this week and had 2 games in which they needed a buzzer beater shot to get them over the line. The Nuggets blew the Minnesota Timberwolves out of the arena, winning 133-107. They needed a Nikola Jokic buzzer beater to win the game 100-99 over the Dallas Mavericks. They also beat the Indiana Pacers 102-100 with a Millsap layup to go ahead. The Nuggets are very close to the top seed and need some solid games to keep going.
