The Suns made a losing start to the postseason as they suffered a 115-110 home defeat to the LA Clippers.

They bounced back emphatic fashion though, winning four straight with 123-109 and 136-130 home wins either side of 129-124 and 112-100 road successes.

Phoenix got off to a rough start in this series though, losing back-to-back games in Denver, 125-107 and 97-87.

The Suns bounced back on their home court though, following up a 121-114 win with a 129-124 victory to knot up the series.

Denver Nuggets Form

Denver return home looking to snap a two-game losing skid – their worst run of the postseason so far.

The Nuggets made a fast start to the playoffs as they won their first three games against Minnesota, winning 109-80 and 122-113 at home before recording a 120-111 victory on the road.

They missed out on the series sweep as they lost Game 4 in overtime, 114-108, but they immediately responded with a 112-109 victory at home.

Denver then followed that up in the first two games of this series with Phoenix, winning 125-107 and 97-87 at home.

The Nuggets were unable to build on that on the road though, suffering 121-114 and 129-124 defeats to the Suns.
