In the Western Conference's tight playoff race, the Nuggets' dismal road play was about to cost them a postseason chance until they pulled out wins at Chicago and Washington on Wednesday and Friday, respectively, to lift their away record to 13-23 (ranked 18th in the NBA). Denver is 2-2 on a seven-game road trip that could decide its fate, without guard Gary Harris to a knee injury 10 days ago. The game is no less important to the 76ers, who are in similar scrap for home-court advantage in the first round. They have been hot recently against a run of bottom-tier opponents and added a resume-boosting win Saturday against Minnesota.
