The Denver Nuggets lived to fight another day with their 117-107 win in game five. They must do that again tonight or their season is over. Jamal Murray had another huge night in game five, going for 42 points, grabbing eight rebounds and dishing out eight assists. Nikola Jokic stepped up his support for Murray with seven 3-pointers and finished with 31 points and Michael Porter Jr. added 15 points off the bench.

The Utah Jazz are looking to close out the series and advance to the next round. Donovan Mitchell once again led the Jazz with 30 points and five assists. Jordan Clarkson and Mike Conley had 17 points apiece in the loss. They led by fifteen early but scored just 44 points in the second half.
he Nuggets are 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings overall. The Nuggets didn't fold when down by double digits early in the last game. The Nuggets are expected to get Garry Harris back for some minutes. He may not help on the offensive end, but he will definitely be welcomed on the defensive end. I like they fight the Nuggets showed in Game 5 and expect them to push this to a 7 game series.

Play on Denver.
