After losing against the LA Clippers on Thursday night, the Denver Nuggets have a chance to get back into the win column against the Atlanta Hawks tonight. Both teams have the same amount of players listed on their injury report, too.

The Nuggets have five players listed on their injury report: Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, Reggie Jackson, and Vlatko Cancar. Nikola Jokic is probable with left hip inflammation, Jamal Murray is questionable with right knee inflammation, Aaron Gordon is questionable with a right foot sprain, Reggie Jackson is questionable with an illness, and Vlatko Cancar is out due to left knee surgery.

The Atlanta Hawks have five players listed on their injury report: Trae Young, Saddiq Bey, AJ Griffin, Mouhamed Gueye, and Onyeka Okongwu. Trae Young is out due to a left fifth finger torn ligament, Saddiq Bey is out due to a left knee torn ACL, AJ Griffin is out due to a right ankle sprain, Mouhamed Gueye is questionable due to a right UCL sprain, and Onyeka Okongwu is out due to a left big toe sprain.

Denver is currently the second seed but tied record-wise with the Minnesota Timberwolves for the first seed. They're also one game ahead of the Oklahoma City Thunder for the third seed. A win tonight could put Denver back into sole possession of the first seed, even after losing three of the last five games.

The Denver Nuggets and Atlanta Hawks face off at 9:00 p.m. EST.
