Milwaukee Bucks vs Denver Nuggets
League: NBA
Competition time: 10:30 on January 24, 2026
Beijing time at 10:30 on January 24, 2026, NBA regular season, the Nuggets, who are recovering, face the Bucks who have been in ups and downs recently. Should the Bucks defend their home court or the Nuggets should turn away.
Basic analysis:
Since the Bucks won the championship, the team’s lineup has also been lost. Although Lillard was introduced from the Trail Blazers through reinforcements, the combination of Lillard and Antetokounmpo did not meet the expectations. They missed the playoffs due to injuries in the first season. Although the two were healthy last season, the running-in has been a mystery, resulting in a loss in the first round of the playoffs, and Lillard also suffered a break. In the off-season, the Bucks only completed the contract extension with core Antetokounmpo and did not usher in reinforcements. With the reinforcements from various teams in the Eastern Conference, the team has a long road ahead. However, Antetokounmpo performed strongly in the new season and once led the team to a highlight performance. However, with the personal injury, the team stagnated. With Antetokounmpo’s comeback, the team won a wave of winning streak. However, the highlight performance did not continue, allowing the Wizards to end the winning streak. Currently ranked 11th in the Eastern Conference with a record of 18 wins and 25 losses, 5 games behind the eighth-place Heat. The Bucks have a long way to go this season.
After the Nuggets completed their first championship in team history, the team’s reinforcements were not too obvious, which made it difficult for the Nuggets to reach the Western Conference Finals in the past two seasons. Last season’s playoffs ended with a defeat in the tiebreaker with the Thunder. In the off-season, the Nuggets significantly strengthened their team in order to continue to compete for the championship. The Nuggets traded Porter Jr. for Cayo, signed back Bruce Brown, and acquired Valanciuna to complete a major upgrade in the lineup. Under the leadership of Jokic in the new season, the team is currently ranked third in the Western Conference with a record of 26 wins and 13 losses. This season, Jokic once again took charge. Averaged 30.4 points, 13 rebounds and 10.8 assists per game, ranking first in the MVP rankings, leading the team to move forward steadily. However, Jokic was stepped on by his teammates recently in the game against the Heat. As a result, 4 of the current Nuggets starting five have been injured, leaving only Murray to play. This has made things worse for the Nuggets. With Murray playing alone, the team is still in the third position in the Western Conference. Overall, the performance is good, but the gold content is limited.
