The Denver Nuggets will meet the Los Angeles Clippers in an NBA 2013 basketball game tonight. The game will be live streamed and can be watched online on NBATV.

DeAndre Jordan tries to continue his stellar play and help the Clippers match their longest win streak of the season Saturday night against the Nuggets.

While Blake Griffin (20.4 points per game) and Chris Paul (19.5 ppg) continue to be the acclaimed stars of the Clippers, Jordan has quietly emerged as one of the league's top interior defenders. The 6-foot-11 center is tied for second in the NBA with an average of 13.0 rebounds and tied for fourth with 2.2 blocks per game.

"I think he's just grown," coach Doc Rivers told the Clippers' official website. "He had to embrace (his role). When you look at our team and you look at the weapons on our team, he had to look at where he would make his biggest impact, and his biggest impact is doing all the other stuff."

"That's a part of my job to be energetic and just be a spark for us on the defensive end," Jordan said. "Offensively, set picks and roll as hard as a can just to try to free guys up. If I'm not playing well offensively or defensively, I can still play with energy and that spark and intensity.

The Nuggets are looking to get back on track after falling 103-99 to Phoenix on Friday. Denver, which shot a season-worst 23.5 percent (4 of 17) from 3-point range, dropped to 3-5 over its last eight after blowing a 21-point lead.

"I'm not very happy, and I'll take the hit for tonight's game, for allowing some things in practice to carry over into the game," coach Brian Shaw said. "When it was going good for us in the first half, we were all smiles and played as if the game was over and didn't have a second half to play."

Ty Lawson, averaging a team-leading 17.8 points, was held to 13 on 3-of-11 shooting and committed five turnovers while playing through the flu. J.J. Hickson posted 13 points and 14 boards for his third consecutive double-double.

Matt Barnes is set to return after missing a month while recovering from a torn retina in his left eye. Barnes is averaging 18.0 points and shooting 51.8 percent in his last four games against Denver.

While Denver is 7-9 against fellow Western Conference opponents, the Clippers are 12-3.
