With his team facing a 3-1 deficit, Jokic was dominant in Saturday’s Game 4 victory. While he finished two assists shy of a triple-double, the Nuggets center recorded the fourth 30/20 game of his postseason career. While Jokic being the focal point offensively is unsurprising, he’s either scored or assisted on a staggering 55.5 percent of the Nuggets’ points in this series. With the series now tied at two games apiece, the Nuggets host Game 5 on Tuesday.

Braun and backcourt partner Jamal Murray (13/7/7/2 with one three-pointer) could not find their strokes in Game 4, as they were a combined 2-of-13 from three and 13-of-36 from the field overall. However, it was enough to help the Nuggets pick up a win the team desperately needed, evening the series at two games apiece. Braun and Murray will look to bounce back at home, as the Nuggets host Game 5 on Tuesday.

To argue that Gordon may have saved Denver’s season on Saturday would not be an exaggeration. In a play similar to Lorenzo Charles’ dunk to win the 1983 national title for NC State, the Nuggets’ forward slammed home a Nikola Jokic airball as time expired to even the series at two games apiece. Still struggling with a calf that sidelined him on multiple occasions during the regular season, Gordon shot over 50 percent from the field and finished in double figures for the fourth straight game. Game 5 is on Tuesday night.

Westbrook is officially out after left foot inflammation limited him to nine minutes in Game 3 on Thursday. His absence frees up rotation minutes for Julian Strawther and Jalen Pickett. However, with Denver needing a win to even the series, starters Jamal Murray and Christian Braun may play more minutes than they usually would.

After victimizing the Warriors in the first two games of the series, Sengun was held in check Saturday night. Golden State’s decision to start Quentin Post meant the Rockets’ center had to contend with more size at the start of the game, and he struggled. Making matters worse was Sengun’s 1-of-6 night from the foul line. A 69.2 percent foul shooting during the regular season, that’s going to be an area of difficulty for Sengun, but he can’t be as poor as he was on Saturday. Now trailing two games to one, the Rockets will look to even the series on Monday.

Zubac has recorded a double-double in three of the series’ first four games, with Saturday’s effort including a complete stat line. The Clippers’ center has done his best defensively to make life difficult for Nikola Jokic. Although he hasn’t always been successful, Zubac has still managed to make significant contributions offensively. The Clippers now head to Denver for Game 5, scheduled for Tuesday night, with the series tied at two games apiece.

The Warriors are without Jimmy Butler (pelvis/glute) for Game 3, resulting in Kuminga moving into the starting lineup. But that is not the only change. After going small in the first two games, the Warriors will move Post into the starting five, with Moses Moody coming off the bench. This change should provide a greater deterrent to Alperen Sengun, who played well against smaller lineups in Games 1 and 2.
