Pacers vs Nuggets Fantasy NBA: The Indiana Pacers will enter the game after beating the Cleveland Cavaliers by 3 points behind a 29 points effort by Malcolm Brogdon. On the other hand, the Denver Nuggets will hit the floor after thrashing the Bucks behind a 37 points triple-double effort by Nikola Jokic. More details about IND vs DEN Dream11 will be given here.
Pacers’ season: Indiana has lacked consistency all season and as a result of it, they have a losing record. They have lacked the firepower to close games at times and despite fielding a deep squad, they have missed the services of Caris Levert who was supposed to fill the hole at the Guard position after the trade of Victor Oladipo.
Nuggets’ season: Denver has done a great job of improving their record after a slow start. They were great in the month of February, mainly because Jamal Murray stepped up his game, and players like Will Barton chipped in at both ends of the floor. Denver is placed 7th in the NBA standings for Western Conference and will like to build momentum on their February results.
