What to Know
The Pacers have been on the road for six straight, but on Tuesday they’ll finally head home. They will take on the Denver Nuggets at 7:00 p.m. ET on Tuesday. The Pacers are expected to lose this one by 4.5 points, so we’ll see if that gives them a bit of motivation.
We saw a pretty high 246-over/under line set for the Pacers’ previous matchup, but the actual score was more down to earth. They fell 117-110 to Phoenix on Sunday. The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for the Pacers in their matchups with the Suns: they’ve now lost five in a row.
Meanwhile, Denver beat Washington 113-104 on Sunday. The win made it back-to-back wins for the Nuggets.
It was another big night for Nikola Jokic, who dropped a double-double on 42 points and 12 rebounds. Those 42 points set a new season-high mark for him.
Indiana has not been sharp recently, as they’ve lost four of their last five matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 24-19 record this season. As for Denver, they have been performing well recently as they’ve won four of their last five matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 30-14 record this season.
Tuesday’s game is shaping up to be a masterclass in shooting: The Pacers just can’t miss this season, having made 50.7% of their shots per game (they’re ranked first in field goal percentage per game overall). However, it’s not like the Nuggets (currently ranked third in field goal percentage per game) struggle in that department as they’ve made 50% of their shots per game this season. Given these competing strengths, it’ll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
The Pacers came up short against the Nuggets in their previous matchup last Sunday, falling 117-109. Will the Pacers have more luck at home instead of on the road?

Firefighters say a car crash was the cause of a large fire that broke out north of the Denver International Airport on Saturday afternoon.
The Brighton Fire Rescue District says a vehicle was traveling through the area of E. 120th Avenue and N. Watkins Road around 2 p.m. when it crashed. Fortunately, the people inside the vehicle did not suffer serious injuries, but the fire department says the vehicle’s catalytic converter caught the nearby grass on fire.
The 120 Fire quickly grew, and firefighters responded with engines, brush trucks and water tenders to attack it from multiple sides. Multiple agencies responded to assist as the winds continued to push the fire across the grassland.
It covered around 237 acres by the time firefighters brought it under control around 3:30 p.m. BFRD says firefighters continued to put out hotspots and monitor a large cottonwood tree that was smoldering nearly 30 feet up the trunk.
With Independence Day approaching, the fire rescue district shared a reminder that a single spark can ignite a fast-moving grass fire. They added that aerial fireworks are illegal in Brighton and pose a serious fire risk in the current conditions.
