The Denver Nuggets schedule for the 2024-25 season has basketball fans ticking off days on their calendars, with opening night set against the Oklahoma City Thunder on October 24 at home. As per KDVR, this premier game will pit the top two teams from last season's Western Conference against each other, setting an electrifying tone for the Nuggets' campaign.
Adding to the initial momentum, the Nuggets' second face-off will host the Los Angeles Clippers on October 26, an intriguing matchup given the history between Russell Westbrook and his former team. According to Mile High Sports, Westbrook's impact on the Nuggets' bench lineups and whether he'll seal games in a role once held by Kentavious Caldwell-Pope are under the microscope.
National audiences will catch the Nuggets in action 22 times throughout the regular season, with a home-court advantage expected to be significant as the team plays seven of their first 10 games at the Pepsi Center. Following an unprecedented complete sell-out record last season, fans are eager to snap up single-game tickets going on sale Saturday, August 17, as stated by Denver7.
Moving beyond the home-court, the Nuggets will continue their quest for dominance with key matchups including a Christmas Day duel with the Phoenix Suns, a continuation of a three-year tradition. This festive fixture promises to be a highlight in a season brimming with anticipation, with the Suns looking to challenge the top tier and disrupt the Nuggets' ascent. The pre-season also packs a punch with games against Boston in Abu Dhabi, signaling the franchise's expanding global footprint.
