DEN vs CLE Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Basketball Tips, Starting Five, Team Details, 26 October

NBA has begun with fire and fury and some of the best players have already made their mark while some youngsters have shown they are the future. In this game, the reigning MVP Nikola Jokic takes on a rebuilding Cavs to further the journey of the NBA. More about DEN vs CLE Dream11 such as injury report, stats, and projected fantasy points will be given here.

DEN vs CLE Dream11 Prediction

Nuggets notched a win versus Spurs in the last game mostly on the back of a strong Nikola Jokic performance. In the absence of Murray, Barton and Morris share the ad-hoc playmaking abilities and despite the wins, the team is showing some concerns. One of the concerns is the lack of depth through the bench. The bench may not be terrible but it isn’t convincing either especially in long term. If the team makes the playoffs then surely they will need a more viable bench unit?

Cleveland comes off after a strong win against the Hawks. Cavaliers are rebuilding ever since LeBron left. They have been one of the worst squads in the league record-wise and the situation may not change soon. Defensive holes, unclear offensive roles, team rifts, have all plagued the Cavs. Will this season be different?
