DEN vs POR Dream11, NBA Pre-season 2019, Prediction and Fantasy Team News

 

The 2019-20 season gets underway for the Portland Trail Blazers as they entertain fellow Western Conference rivals Denver Nuggets in the season-opener at Moda Center.

Expectations will be sky-high from Blazers ahead of the new campaign after the team finally overcame the first-round hurdle last season, and made all the way to the conference finals where they were beaten by Golden State Warriors. That run was the best in the franchise history since the 1999-2000 season.

With the franchise managing to keep hold onto the core of the team, while adding a couple of star players such as Kent Bazemore and Hassan Whiteside in the offseason to boost the roster.

What to expect from Portland Trail Blazers?

Barring any injuries, Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum will once again lead the charge for the team this season. if the duo remains fit and healthy, there’s no reason why the team can’t touch go beyond 50 wins in the regular season.

Portland will battle for a top-four finish again this season.


Denver Nuggets will target to emulate the success of last season as they recorded 54-28 record in the regular season which landed them the 2nd spot in the Western Conference.

Nuggets boast one of the best big-man on their roster in Nikola Jokic. If the Serbian remains as lethal as he was last season, with most NBA pundits expecting him to be even better this season, and the superstar supporting cast led by Jamal Murray matching the success of last season, the sky is the limit for Denver Nuggets this season.
