Injury Report: Denver Nuggets vs Phoenix Suns /

The Denver Nuggets are the hottest team in the Western Conference and they have a chance to extend their winning streak to seven games against the shorthanded Phoenix Suns tonight.

The Nuggets only have one player listed on their injury report - Vlatko Cancar. Cancar is out due to left knee surgery. Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon, and the Denver Nuggets' entire starting five lineup are all listed as available against the Suns.

The Phoenix Suns have five players listed on their injury report: Devin Booker, Damion Lee, Nassir Little, Jusuf Nurkic, and Josh Okogie. Devin Booker is out with a right ankle sprain, Damion Lee is out with right meniscus surgery, Nassir Little is out with left knee inflammation, Jusuf Nurkic is questionable with right calf tightness, and Josh Okogie is out with a lower abdominal strain. Both Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal are listed as available for the Suns.

After winning 5 of their last 6 games, the Phoenix Suns have now found themselves losing 4 of their last 6 games. Meanwhile, the Denver Nuggets have yet to lose a game since the All-Star break, with a current winning streak of six games. Winning tonight's game would tie the Denver Nuggets with the Minnesota Timberwolves for the best record in the Western Conference.

The Denver Nuggets and Phoenix Suns face off at 10:00 p.m. EST tonight.
