On Sunday evening, the Denver Nuggets are hosting the Chicago Bulls in Colorado.  

Through the first two games of the preseason, both teams have gone 1-1, and the Bulls defeated the Nuggets on Thursday night in Chicago (133-124 in overtime).    

For Sunday's showdown, the Nuggets have announced their injury report.     

Via Katy Winge of AltitudeTV: "Nuggets injury report ahead of tonight’s home preseason game against Chicago: 

Christian Braun (calf) OUT 

Michael Porter Jr (ankle) OUT 

Jay Huff (right rib fracture) OUT"

In Thursday's game, DeMar DeRozan led the way with 19 points, and Zach LaVine also had 17.   

Meanwhile, Nikola Jokic had 17 points for the Nuggets. 

Following Sunday's game, the Bulls will host the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday, and the Nuggets will visit the Clippers the same night. 

Last year, the Bulls were the tenth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 40-42 record.      

They beat the Toronto Raptors in the first play-in tournament game but lost to the Miami Heat in the second, so they missed the NBA playoffs for the fifth time in the previous six seasons.     

On October 25, the Bulls will host the Oklahoma City Thunder for their first regular season game of the year.  

As for the Nuggets, they are coming off a sensational year where they were the first seed in the Western Conference and won the NBA Championship over the Miami Heat. 

They will play their first regular season game on October 24 when they host LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers.
