Jokic had a strong comeback performance against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night, shooting significantly better from the field than he had the previous two games. While Jokic and the Nuggets have not been as sharp as they have been in the past, a win over Atlanta might help spark a winning streak.

The Bulls are not a fantastic team, but they do have some players who may cause problems for the Nuggets, so Denver will have to lock in and prepare for a battle.
