The NBA's opening week concludes on Saturday with five games on the schedule, including the Phoenix Suns vs. Denver Nuggets matchup. The Suns are in the middle of an early three-game road trip, while the Nuggets are playing in their first home game of the season. Phoenix began the campaign with a come-from-behind win over the Sacramento Kings at home before losing the first game of their road trip against the LA Clippers. The Nuggets, on the other hand, suffered an overtime loss to the Golden State Warriors in their season opener. Suns coach Jordan Ott used a starting five of Devin Booker, Grayson Allen, Dillon Brooks, Ryan Dunn and Oso Ighodaro. Nuggets coach David Adelman countered with his lineup of Jamal Murray, Christian Braun, Cameron Johnson, Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic.
