The Utah Jazz defeat the Denver Nuggets in six games to move on to the second round.

The general consensus is that the Jazz are going to have to play nearly perfect team basketball to beat the Denver Nuggets. NBA 2K20 predicts they will.

Led by Donovan Mitchell, who averaged 18.3 points per game, the Jazz will move on to round two of the playoffs after six grueling games with the Nuggets. In fact, in all but game five, Mitchell was the leading scorer for the Jazz.

One of the most anticipated matchups to watch in this series is the battle between Jazz’s Rudy Gobert and Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic. While Jokic got the better of Gobert in every game in the series, averaging 19 points and 10.2 rebounds per game, it was the Jazz that ultimately played better team basketball.
