March 27, 2023 9:29 PM ET

DISFALLS:

The Philadelphia 76ers are expected to arrive with the absences of Joel Embiid, Danuel House Jr.

March 27, 2023 9:24 PM ET

James Harden

James Harden is the leader in assists in the NBA season and has been making a big difference for the Sixers. The Philadelphia 76ers star distributes an average of 10.8 per game. In addition, "The Beard" averages 21.4 points

March 27, 2023 9:16 PM ET

Nikola Jokic

Nikola Jokic has had another great season, averaging 24.9 points per game. The forward, in fact, has exceeded that mark in seven of the last 10 games. However, the Nuggets have gone through a recent bout of instability, which has affected Jokic and the debate for the MVP award, making room for Joel Embiid. In the last 10 games, Denver has won only five and has had a string of four straight losses.

March 27, 2023 9:09 PM ET

Final Prediction for Denver Nuggets - Philadelphia 76ers

Playing at home and possibly catching an undermanned Philadelphia 76ers, I believe the Nuggets have a slight advantage in this duel. Thus, my guess is Denver's victory!

March 27, 2023 8:59 PM ET

Last game of the 76ers:

In the game against the Suns, in Phoenix, the team from Philadelphia lost by 125 to 105, converting 43.6% of their shots and 41.9% of their three-pointers. The best players for the Sixers in the game were Cameroonian superstar Joel Embiid, with a double-double of 28 points and 10 rebounds, as well as four assists and two blocks, and Tyrese Maxey, who contributed 37 points, seven rebounds and three assists. The Philadelphia 76ers arrive with Joel Embiid, James Harden and Danuel House Jr. as doubts.

March 27, 2023 8:51 PM ET

Philadelphia 76ers

Meanwhile, coach Doc Rivers' Sixers are in third place in the East with 49 wins and 25 losses, and are still dreaming of a top-two finish. The team has won seven of its last ten games, but lost the two most recent ones against Golden State Warriors and Phoenix Suns, both away from home.

March 27, 2023 8:45 PM ET

In the most recent game against the Bucks at home last Saturday night, the Colorado franchise won 129-106, shooting 52.8% from the field and shooting 41.7% from three-point range.

Besides him, Jamal Murray shone with 26 points, six rebounds and nine assists. The Denver Nuggets arrive with Michael Porter Jr. as a doubt, while Collin Gillespie and Jack White are confirmed absentees.

March 27, 2023 8:38 PM ET

Denver Nuggets

Coach Michael Malone's Nuggets remain alone at the top of the West with 50 wins and 24 losses. The team has been wavering in its last ten games, with five wins and five losses, but has won its last three games against the Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards, and Milwaukee Bucks.

How the NBA standings work

Those who watch the NBA live throughout the regular season anxiously await the playoffs, when the 8 best teams from each franchise compete in best-of-7 games for the chance to reach the ultimate glory: the NBA champion title.
Before the playoffs, however, the league holds a Play-In, a sort of "playoff" that began to be played in 2020, the year in which the season was ended in a "bubble" because of the Covid pandemic.
In the Play-In, the franchises that finish seventh through tenth in each of the conferences play a single-game playoff, like this:

- The 7th place finisher from each conference faces the 8th place finisher. The winner of that game is in the playoffs.
- The 9th place team faces the 10th place team. The winner of this game earns the right to play for the last playoff spot against the loser of the 7th-place match.

IT'S NBA!

The NBA (National Basketball Association) is the national basketball league in the United States, with 30 teams divided into two groups, separated by the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference. The league was founded on June 6, 1946, as the BAA (Basketball Association of America), but three years later it merged with the NBL (National Basketball League), becoming the NBA we know today.
The first winner was the Los Angeles Lakers, who spliced four titles in a row with an early dynasty in the league. It was only halted by the Golden State Warriors, and soon after by the Baltimore Bullets.

Today, the Lakers, together with the Boston Celtics, are the NBA's biggest winners, with 17 titles each. Golden State Warriors are right behind with seven, where they have achieved another dynasty in the league with Stephen Curry, Klay Thomspon, Kevin Durant and Draymond Green.

The league also divides the awards by sectors. The most valuable is MVP, where they elect the best athlete in the league based only on the regular season. Right after that, there are awards for the best coach, best executive, sixth man, rookie and several others. Currently, the player with the most MVP awards is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, with six. Next, Michael Jordan has five, along with Bill Russell. LeBron James, still active, has four awards.

The defending champions of the league is the Golden State Warriors, where they defeated the Boston Celtics 4-2 in the final. The Warriors finished in third place in the Western Conference, passing the Denver Nuggets, Memphis Grizzlies, and Dallas Mavericks in the postseason to win the tournament. Forward Nikola Jokic is the reigning MVP of the season, where he won for the second time in a row. Stephen Curry, the Warriors' point guard, is the reigning Finals MVP.

The current season has great teams such as the Boston Celtics, Milwaukee Bucks, Philadelphia 76ers, Miami Heat, and Brooklyn Nets in the Eastern Conference, while the Phoenix Suns, Memphis Girzzlies, Golden State Warriors, Dallas Mavericks, Denver Nuggets, and Los Angeles Clippers compete for the top spots in the Western Conference. Still, there are teams that are favorites to get further ahead, such as the Cleveland Cavaliers, Atlanta Hawks, Portland Trail Blazers, and LeBron James' Los Angeles Lakers.

Finally, big stars are candidates for the MVP award, such as Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jayson Tatum, Joel Embiid, Kevin Durant, Ja Morant, Stephen Curry, Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic and LeBron James.
